PeteW 0 #1 August 21, 2006 Ever since I started skydiving or anything with a risk I get the shakes. Even after 22 jumps I still get the shakes on the ground. It seems my hands shake a little more when the jump was freakin good!! My JM told me its just adrenaline. Some people get em and some don't. Anybody else get em??

imthegerm 0 #2 August 21, 2006 adrenaline overdose! that is what makes you come back for more, isn't it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy9o8 0 #3 August 21, 2006 Sure sounds like adrenaline to me. A couple years ago, I cut out all caffeinated drinks - not even diet cola or Mountain Dew any more. I'm definitely better for it. If caffeine is currently part of your diet, maybe you should try doing the same thing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
