Any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction: I SERVED IN THE UNITED STATES NAVY. John F. Kennedy Aug. 1963

I did it back in 1977. Probably the biggest adreniline rush possible. Had to step out of the plane and hold onto the wing strut at a few thousnd feet until the jumpmaster told you to go. WOW what a rush!!!!

My daughter has done it and loved every second of it. When it came time to think of a 34 year wedding anniversary present for my wife (yesterday), my daughters suggested a skydiving adventure for her. We found 1/2 price off through groupon.com and I bought 3 tickets- one each for both daughters, and one for the wife. My sister, age 56 is also going. I'll be the guy on the ground shooting the pictures.  If 4 women can do it, I guess it's not that hard.

Out of 10,000 feet of fall, always remember that the last half inch hurts the most. 
But I really don't know if I would ever want to do it. Maybe bungee jumping.

I've always wanted to jump, but I asked my knee surgeon and he said if I did he would run me over in his car. So I didn't think it was a good idea.lol

I knew I had good reason to like you, Rich!
As for jumping, I did a tandem jump in New Zealand.. it was incredible. It really is the first initial bail out of the airplane and after that its a lot of wind and checking out the scenery. At least it was for me. I'd definitely do it again.
