Skydiving
Some weeks ago, I was visiting my parents and while walking around outside, I saw some skydivers, parachuters, jumpers, or whatever the correct vernacular is. A long time ago, the thought of skydiving brought a chuckle and a "no fucking way, ever" to my mind. Now, however, watching them fall through the air, the notion of feeling weightless for a few moments while plummeting to my inevitable doom is a bit appealing.
What are your experiences with skydiving? Any advice? Any horror stories that will convince me to stay firmly planted on the ground?
