That's right my friends. After at least three years of saying I wanted to do this, I finally took the plunge..er..uh...flight!
Yep, I went skydiving! My friend, James, needed to get in a few more jumps this month to keep his certification current, so I decided to tag along. After all, this was a Bucket List item for me!
Gearing up!
Climbing aboard the small plane
If you notice the altimeter, you can see that it says 12.8, which means we were 12,800 feet in the air when we jumped! Crazy!
I'm pulling the cord to open the parachute here
Coming in for an insanely smooth landing. About 0 mph wind that afternoon
Phil (instructor) and me. I made it back to land safely, despite my now-crazy hairdo!
For a more in depth look, here's a sweet video!

That. Is. Awesome! Wow...major adrenaline I bet! Way to go :)
Ok, slightly jealous. Kind of want to do it - but I would probably pee my pants..
Wow congrats! I don't have the guts to do that!
I just found my skydiving video this weekend, and it made me sick watching it! I can't believe I've gone. Thank goodness you only have to go once to say you've done it! Think you'll go again? Me:NO THANK YOU!
