Ask your legs how will they feel when you're out of money, will they support you in earning some more? and on the other side there's this "I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered." - George Best

Yeah yeah... Your butt doesn't hurt now, does it? David Lynch never offended my sensitive mind, this does. -
No, no. Sometimes I can't resist leaving the post as is, knowing of it's duality look. I'm just a human

This ^ just went into my bucket list! I jumped just about everything, my bad. I hope there's hope for me to experience what you have. What goes around, comes later.

I appreciate effective humor. It doesn't make me a "racist" or whatever (I think). In Serbia, where I'm from, there's a "noticable" ethnicity of gypsies, who's appearantly making living out of a dumpsters. A passionate hunter ends up with a lethal diagnosis. Doctor offers him a a solution: CrioSleep until a scientists invent a cure for it. After a 70 years, they woke him up and cure him. He asks what is a current animal to hunt? They say there are no animals in the wild no more... exept for gypsies (who multiplied enormously) So, he's loaded a gun, spotted a couple of gypsies at the dumpster... BAM... BAM! Forerster yelling: "NO, NO... 200 yards of a feeder at least" What goes around, comes later.

Skydiving is safe – but not as safe as you might think
format replied to maggyrider's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
I meant that risk factor may be "useful" if it is given for SAME control group (age/experience/weather/canopy/wing load etc.) But it is not as far as know. These micromorts means nothing to me, they don't make me feel more or less safe at all. I woudn't ever bet on predicting skydiving accident based on statistics (or based on anything else). There is enough jumpers with constantly high risk factor and nothing happens. On the other side, ultra safe jumpers die and vice versa. What ever happens doesn't surprise me and numbers do not help. What I think is that statistics gives a false idea of having knowledge, therefore is more risky to know it than not. -

I don't see it. If all would jump large only or small only - proportions of numbers would be the same. When data is mixed, the results are misleading. What goes around, comes later. -
By me, your sole intention is great. But we're talking of basic instinct here, how do you help develope it?
-
So, if I'm in over my head - I can hope there's a clear-head guy who'll prove that to me. Good. It is far more difficult proving to a really skilled jumper that they're overestimating their student. Especially when you're a student in question. Just by trying - you diminish yourself (in their minds).

Would you continue filming when seeing an accident?

ahem... I don't know what's ok. I lean toward video value... -
Is it safe for me to get trained to skydive?
format replied to BeaveCake's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
My first was out of mosquito like airplane, static line, 3300 ft. Blacked out but opening shock woke me up. I was determinate to jump again.. and I decided - if I black out again - to quit it. I was 40 at the time. What goes around, comes later. -
