  1. The statistic 1/100,000 comes from the average 30 fatalities a year which is estimated from 30fatalities/3,000,000total jumps. There are 350,000 people making 3,000,000 jumps per year which works out to be (one jumper makes 8.5 jumps per year). Averages take into account outliers. Not every jumper made 8.5 jumps per year. So not every jumper has a 1/100,000 chance of dying. It's just a average estimate of your odds per jump per year. Some people have more risk, some people have less. And there are many variables determining risk.
  2. Actually, the more jumps you make per year the more risk you have of dying. http://adventure.howstuffworks.com/skydiving8.htm When your tossing a coin, there is only two outcomes. Heads or tails. The frequency of jumps and other factors increase your risks. For example, Who you jump with, where your jumping, weather, wind.
  3. If you make one jump in a year, your chance of dying is 1 in 100,000.
  4. I like PD reserves better although I have only used this reserve from PA. So I don’t know how other PA reserves perform. None the less, the Raven-M does what it’s supposed to do.

    Ha ha. I guess that's what happens when you don't confirm what you heard. Sorry for the speculation. Guess their situations still pending.

    I heard the West Memphis Three got a new trial. Thank god. Talk about a kangaroo Court. To bad they don't just release them.
  7. With Rommo in the gun, and if i were a skins fan, which thank god i'm not, i'd be worring about the 18th.
  8. I agree. Paris is a result of the way her parent's raised her. I doubt her mother said that in court, or she would be joining her daughter. I hope this gets the message across to the rest of the famous, and rich community that they are not above the law. I’m just glad there’s a judge out there who does not get star gazed when dealing with famous, rich criminals, because that’s what Paris is, a criminal.
  9. All I got to say is thank you your honor
  10. Oh, that’s right. You were the one dating Angelina Jolie before Brad. How could I think that you would take such a step down as to be attracted to Paris? LOL
  11. You just think she's hot.
  12. To me, these are classics. To some, only cult classics. Blue Velvet Easy Rider Apocalypse now

    I have never tried it, but my friends who have, say it's some evil shit.
  14. Most of us would if we pulled the same shit.
