CanuckInUSA 0 #1 April 19, 2004 Has anyone else tried to mark their 666th jump in a special way? I mean it's only once in a life time when we hit the magical 666 (the devil made me do it) jump number. Weather permitting, I will be doing my 666th jump this coming weekend and it would be nice to do something different (of course a lot will depend on who's around the DZ the day I make this jump).

FrogNog 1 #3 April 19, 2004 You could borrow an all-red canopy, for starters. Although, the all-red canopy at my DZ doesn't look demonic, it looks more like a big tomato when I see it. -=-=-=-=- Pull. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riddler 0 #4 April 19, 2004 Hey Steve - how about we redo the peas in the shape of a pentagram and do a night jump with candles burning at the corners and a sacrificial alter with a blood-stained canopy on it? You can swoop between two columns of people in black robes chanting "flare-or-die, flare-or-die" With a little erie music, it would make a sweet video.Trapped on the surface of a sphere.

JohnMitchell 14 #6 April 19, 2004 I didn't do anything special for #666 but you should have seen my jump #69. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanuckInUSA 0 #7 April 19, 2004 QuoteI didn't do anything special for #666 but you should have seen my jump #69. Ironically my 69th jump was pretty memorable as well. You see I had to bail out of a disabled aircraft (it ran out of fuel) at 5k and I was the 2nd to last person to exit.

I'm sure it's not going to happen. But it's a great way to celebrate someone's 666th jump.

sunshine 2 #9 April 19, 2004 I dreaded that jump number. I ended up doing a H&P just to get it done and over with. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GeeeeeeFly 0 #10 April 19, 2004 I think it's cool you are doing something for the number... I did my 666 a month ago and had a buch of us fly on our head carving around one another... It looked nice on video... ~G~ "The edge ... there is no honest way to explain it because the only people who know where it is are those that have gone over" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisL 2 #11 April 19, 2004 A number is a number. 666 is the one between 665 and 667. I recomend exiting some type of aircraft, falling a bit, then opening your main, fly around some, then land somewhere in the landing area of your DZ. I know, I'm no fun at all. I dont think 13 means shit either __ My mighty steed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hookitt 0 #16 April 19, 2004 hahaha.. you guys are such wimps! It's just a number. But since there's so much associated with it, why not! I like the idea of celebrating your 666th jump. Why not?

Praetorian 1 #17 April 19, 2004 hell yea I'd do something satanic related (mostly to makefun of the concept that numbers mean anything ... just be sure to bring some "devil's brew" to share at the end .. night jump of some kind sounds cool Good Judgment comes from experience...a lot of experience comes from bad judgment.
