QuoteShe is the 10th person to do that many jumps!
Is that the 10th AMERICAN to do that many jumps or are you counting other countries such as new zealand and australia and the uk?
I know of a few people who are past this mark but i can not imagine them being on a list.

Not a chance - hell, you can probably find almost 10 Airspeed members past and present that have 15000 jumps.
Still, an awesome accomplishment!

Wow, that's a serious achievement! Is there a list anywhere of all ten people?
Jim Wallace (Perris) has 18k+
Omar Alhegelan (Eloy) is probably over the 15k mark by now.

I believe our DZO, Phil Onis has over 21,000 and he still jumps every weekend and probably during the week too.

Congrats Carol !!!
I jumped with Carol at the convention last year. We did a 6 PT 12 Way with Roger Ponce. I think I was the only one on that jump with less then 1000 jumps and no world records.
Here is a picture.

PS. Craig Girard probably has 20,000 by now. There has to be more then 10.

I thought Patrick Passe had over 20,000.
If some old guy can do it then obviously it can't be very extreme. Otherwise he'd already be dead.

Yeah, if you go back through the past Parachutist issues and look up the names of those who earned the respective award...
Unfortunately those of us on the otherside of the world in Africa don't regularly see a Parachutist

Penta Ruby Wings (15,000 jumps) number 8 was awarded to Simon Wade in the Sept. 2005 Parachutist. Seems there is "a chance in hell" that she may very well be number 10.
Remember that those are only people that apply for the award.

I know Dan BC has over 22,000.

Thats right, last I heard anyway. Though he is very quiet about it all.
He still logs every jump too.

That's right, only those who have applied. I ran into Carl Daughtery a few months ago at the Keys Boogie in Marathon Key and he had 16,500. Roger Ponce was there also and if has been jumping steady like Carl, he must also be in that range. Scotty Carbone was there and had about 12,800 so is closing in too.

Wow, how old is she? If 30 years, she would have had to jump twice each day since age 10!

You have that backwards.
Don has more than Bill by several thousand.
I do believe that Bill may have more freefall time, though but I'm uncertain of that.
Don is in the Guinness book of World Records for the most jumps and currently has in the neighborhood of 36,000 jumps.
I made my first tandems hooked up to Don back in 1989. He was number 1 back then too but was only (har har) around 12 or 13,000.
Got my license there and still go up there from time to time although CK is closer to me.
Don is the energizer bunny of jumping. He's still going...
