  1. ive never had a bounce dream. i ahve ahd a couple where the reserve has taken a ridiclously long time time to open but i still hit the ground softly. hmm i had one where i was properly freaked out though. i was in the plane without a rig and had absolutely no intention of jumping- just taking photos!!! after the last person left and just bailed out. could feel myself falling for about 2 seconds and then woke up in a cold sweat and said to myself out loud- im stil alive :S Dudeist Skydiver #170 You do not need a parachute to skydive, you only need one to skydive again

  6. saying as im an hours drive from dublin ill give a little input Accomodation wise, you should consider b+bs as well as hotels as you may get a better deal for the same type of service. when i stayed over in dublin in the summer i stayed here http://www.mapleshotel.com/index.php 49euro for a double room (which could actually sleep 3 )per night and it was fantastic. Pub wise theres loads!!! its ireland be aware though its pretty dear for a drink in dublin city. expect at least 6euro+ per pint. getting around isnt too hard- the DART and the LUAS have regular services around the city, with the DART operating into early hours. theres quite a lot to see around dublin and in the surrounding counties e.g you could visit Navan in County Meath (about an hours drive) and see where the ancient High Kings sat, and see some Celtic burial grounds. Belfast is only 1.5 hours by train so ya may as well make a wee visit up here and soak up some of the culture. you can book cheaper tickets online (minimum 3 days in advance) you can use http://www.translink.co.uk/enterprisebuyonline.asp closer to the time. if you are interested theres a skydive centre Irish Parachute Club not that far away in Co.

  14. We are in a blue moon month now then. You are correct there. the first one happened on 2 Dec and the next one is due on the 31st Dec :) Dudeist Skydiver #170 You do not need a parachute to skydive, you only need one to skydive again
  15. I studied this in depth (no pun ) at university. The melt of the polar ice caps is up for debate. If the Arctic sheets melted sea level rise would barely be affected for the reasons that Anta said. if you think of all the icebergs that are 90% under water it would only be them 10% contributing to sea level rise which at a global scale would be very little. However Andy makes a good point about the Antartic already being on land. Therotically speaking global warming could create another ice age. the antartic (as well as other snow areas) have a very high albedo and thus reflect the sun's heat radiation back into the atmosphere into space keeping the temperatures cool. however as more ice breaks off the shelves more surface area is exposed reflecting even more heat back into space, cooling temperatures andkeeps going thus forth. but its only a theory Dudeist Skydiver #170 You do not need a parachute to skydive, you only need one to skydive again

  17. You can throw a penny off the empire state building and if it hits a person it wont harm them. The green day video basket case was shot in black and white and the colour added later to give its surreal effect Dudeist Skydiver #170 You do not need a parachute to skydive, you only need one to skydive again
  18. A blue moon is when 2 full moons occur within a month- they are so rare that they are called blue moons hence the phrase "once in a blue moon" Dudeist Skydiver #170 You do not need a parachute to skydive, you only need one to skydive again

  21. im pretty sure the question he asked was what can you damage on a cesna WITH OUT hitting it, anyone and their dog could figure out that you'd damage the plane if you hit it on exit try again
  22. you will notice quite a lot of people in the planes doing gear checks on the ride to altitude. before every jump i locate my handles, do a dummy reserve drill and check my BOC. on our RAPs course our reserve drills were literally repeated to us for an hour so we got it. my mate who did the course and never jumped (4 years ago!) still remembers the procedure.
