        Hope you get the chance to do it. Done a tandam jump a few years ago and was it was amazing. 30 seconds of falling towards the ground at 130mph seems to last longer. Just a warning, beware of when the chute opens. The jolt and constraining of the harness around the groin area can be a little unpleasant.
        Hold my beer and watch this

              Thats a shame you would have loved it. Free fall jumps are much more comfortable than standard military jumps, they dont hurt so much

                  Yup - in Queenstown New Zealand in February this year

                  15,000' with a 10,000' freefall

                  IT IS BL00DY AWESOME

                  Both my daughters and niece went out before me - that was quite an interesting feeling to watch your girl disappear out of the door, I can tell you.
