Skydiveage!!


Put skydiving on your list of things to do before you die!! The most incredible feeling ever is plummeting 18,000 feet (the highest you can do in this country!) to the ground at 120Mph! There are no words to describe the freefall at all. I freefalled for 70 seconds it was nuts all the photos were taken during the freefall. They release a small parachute which keeps you balanced in the air and saves you spinning etc. We dived over cape canaveral so when my parachute was released i had a gorgeous view of the space center and the ocean. The parachute ride back was gorgeous the view was absolutely breathtaking. Brent taught me how to steer with the parachute and a couple of little tricks he was an awesome guy. All of our instructors were suited to us. Gaynor got a hot brazilian guy, Sally got this laid back guy who was just really chilled, Craig got the most sensible and proffessional guy and i got Brent the total nutjob.. i loved him. When we were up in the plane he just started shouting 'were all gonna die!!' He was awesome!! The best thing ive ever done in my life and i would do it again in a heartbeat.
