OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How fun! I have been tempted several times but never did it. My hubby is REALLY wanting to do it. SO PROUD of you Priscilla! What an amazing thing to do!

Traci Reed 10-22-2012 02:55 PM

You're so awesome P!

YepBrook 10-22-2012 02:58 PM

Oh my goodness, you are so brave! I watched the video on your blog. WOW! That moment when you're looking out the plane from way up high and then... JUMP!!!! Woah! That's got to be the biggest adrenaline rush ever? Or is it the free falling part? ;) I want to do that someday... I just have to work up the courage. :w00t:

Priscilla! That was AWESOME!! I think that was just so great of them to film the whole thing too.

I got my Military Para Wings when I was in the service, where they make you do the jump from only 800 -1000 feet with round 'chutes, which is really only enough time for the 'chute to open before you reach the ground (military style is to get in hard and fast so there's no time for the enemy to shoot you down). NOT a fun experience - the landings were bone jarring. I did do a couple of tandem dives from 15,000 feet as well, and that was much more enjoyable. The rectangle 'chutes give you a much gentler landing. Good on you for being brave enough to give it a go. Do you think you'll do it again?

lovely1m 10-22-2012 05:04 PM

That's awesome, Priscilla! You actually make me wanna do it and I have never had a desire to do it. BTW, I think the videographer really enjoyed saying your name. He would just sing it.

Freckles 10-22-2012 05:20 PM

OMG!!! I get nauseous just by the thought! I have a terrible fear of heights so I would never be able to do that but I can imagine the adrenaline kick you get from something like that! You rock!

joelsgirl 10-22-2012 07:02 PM

rach3975 10-22-2012 07:25 PM

Oooh me too. No way in heck would I willingly jump out of a plane! It was super cool watching your experience though Priscilla!

Tracyfish 10-22-2012 08:01 PM

Wow! You've got some guts girlie! Way to go!

Priscilla 10-22-2012 08:33 PM

We paid for the video and stills and yes, the second one is already paid for (discount for buying it the same day!)

Do you think you'll do it again?


Priscilla 10-22-2012 08:34 PM

The entire thing was an INCREDIBLE rush ... the only "uncomfortable" moment was when he was rocking and I KNEW this was IT .... but the second we were falling, then spinning ... it was all AMAZING!!

If looking out a plane window doesn't bother you - you'd be fine ...

It's nothing like looking DOWN a tall building :)
