It is awsome!


Alright ladies and gents,
I did the most craziest thing of my life this saturday.
I jumped off a plane!
Me and Boby were just talking about it on Thursday and we made a plan.

So, we started drving to the Hollister airport around 2 and got there about 3p.
So we signed up and then there was a long waite! Isn't it funny people are paying for suicide, anyways!
Finally it was our turn!
Marched towards the plane, got all dressed up and got into the plane!
It was a small plane. As we took off people started opening windows because it was getting all stuffy inside. Reminded me of the buses back home in Pakistan,lol
Anyways, we got our altitude (15k feet) and it was the moment of truth!
It was amazing to stand on the plane??s door and look down and jump! I did free fall for 60 seconds which was the most amazing time of my life. I felt like a bird and felt free!
Ofcourse negative thoughts were crossing my mind such as what if the parachute doesn??t open, then I was like hell I am here now so might as well enjoy and if it doesn??t open then good bye to the world ??
Then the parachute opened up and we were just flying around for a while. Looking down was magnificent!

Okay, it is awesome, granted. The thrill of a lifetime, maybe not, but certainly wild enough of an experience to rock your foundation - for a time. Now you didn't mention that you were tied to someone else, who happened to do all the work.. WHICH IS OKAY. Many people do that. It is called Tandem jumping.

I, on the other hand, was crazy enough to go AFF (Accelerated Free Fall) and almost die on my first skydive.. facing my 4th NDE (near death experience) and strangely living to tell the tale.. (JE Titled: What Makes Me Superman - Part II.) Not that I'm proud of it, au contraire. So yeah, I too recommend to people to go tandem the first time. Gives you an appreciation for something which one cannot ever prepare for, no matter how long you study in preparation.. (8 hours here.. NOT ENOUGH!)
