I'll never forget looking up at people stuck above the fires, seeing the camera guy next to me in tears, everyone in complete disbelief what was happening. This day never gets less painful. I can only hope that there will be a day where people stop searching for reasons to dehumanize others. All of us can work towards better days.

must have been a slightly long spot

If you don't want them to cutaway I wouldnt use the word 'cutaway'. I'd rather yell "hold it" or anything but "cutaway". you never know what they will hear.

I've never heard a first time tandem say "sending jumpers". could be a coincidence, but it is a phrase used a lot by skydivers..

Contact their hosting providers with the details of stolen content. Most hosting companies take this very seriously. PM me if you need help looking up a provider.

looks like a robbery sabotaged the operation :/ http://twitter.com/SkydiveJamaica

ill be in nashville for the month of August, seems like tullahoma flys every other saturday. skydive elvis is 4 hours away. so far its looking like ill make the 4 hour commute on the weekends. anyone have recommendations for jumping around nashville?

I don't know. There are certainly skydivers who follow those paths. You don't hear much about fellowship from those folks. Fellowship is a type of love, phileo or brotherly love. Christians desire fellowship with other Christians. We know we are establishing eternal bonds. A friend of mine did some missionary outreach in Nepal and he said there is no concept of the love of God in that area. "For God so loved the world," was a fascination to them. Muslims confuse me. I have met some who were very friendly and shared easily without animosity. Others have only spoken of the desire to die for Allah. I think this might be one of the most ignorant things ive ever read here lol.

just do 15 minutes in a wind tunnel, it will take all your worries away.

all the time. the other day i did a nice job of spitting right on my arm though. i usually aim right over my shoulder.

personally i wouldnt use anything that limits my view. i would be cautious of anything thats bulky around the edges. you never know if it will cause you to not see a jumper above you at pull time or something else unexpected that you otherwise might have seen in the corner of your eye.

Jump #1. The first time i felt something i could only describe as beautiful. After years of an existential crisis, i finally found something thats "good enough" to cope with such a small existence in an infinite universe.

Lesson in disappointment? Sounds like a lesson in being the fuck on time when you meet the president.

play him off, keyboard cat

OH MY GOD THERE ARE GOING TO BE MUSLIMS EVERYWHERE WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN TO OUR KIDS??? idiots

should have bought a lotto ticket :)

Is it a major shock that people will exhaust their financial resources no matter how much they make? Of course the 250k group may not be "rich", but they have more options to sacrifice than households making 40k.

that's surprising.. not.

I wonder what the record is for 4 year old tandems in 24 hours is..

yeah right on dude! fuck the environment!

maybe i'm just particularly sensitive to things like this since my life was greatly changed on september 11th, but this is just unfuckingbelievable. seeing this today gave me the biggest chills ive ever had in my life. i really want to know how its even possible gather such an incompetent group of people to conclude this would be a good idea. http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/04/27/air-force-one-backup-rattles-new-york-nerve/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tN57C98B310 (not my video) and we pay for this shit?

just like the other day, i saw a mcdonalds commercial.. they must pay a FORTUNE to put that ad on tv!

i threw up right after landing on 3 out of my 4 tandems. i felt a little sick after my aff 1 and 2, but was completely fine aside from that. just tell the instructor next time not to spin the canopy or you'll puke :) you could even fold a paper bag in your pocket if you need to puke before landing.
