micra_wrc Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 good luck pete i did one of these for Marie Curie Cancer Research a couple of years ago and it was the best rush ever. the feeling you get during the freefall was awesome and when i landed, i wanted to go straight back up in the plane and do it again but they wouldnt let me [] the moment just before you jump/fall out the plane was scary tho' imy [] Link to comment
st3ph3n Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 The film was Hot Shots: Part Deux. When they're jumping out the plane they shout geronimo, except when an american indian jumps out and shouts ME Link to comment
dipsy Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 Good luck with your skydive and if you do it on a Sunday watch you don't land on the car booter's.It has happened in the past Link to comment
peter_reid Posted March 25, 2006 Author Share Posted March 25, 2006 Cheers! I'm looking forward to it. No point doing anything where there is no rush. I'm a Downhill mountain bike racer and have been for a few years. I still take a gasp when I arrive at the Nevis Range for a race but it's a good nervousness. We are doing the whole course so after 4 jumps we qualify and then go to £30 per jump. We are intending on making it a hobby. Hopefully I'll still have my legs in one piece as I'm racing at Innerleithen on the 16th April [] Pete Link to comment
