Fancy Jumping Out Of A Plane?

In a word:

No.

Seconded.

Different people have different thresholds. I have no problem doing 150mph in a car or on a motorcycle. On the other hand, I'm completely petrified of doing things like swimming in the ocean where I can't see what is underneath, or jumping out of a perfectly good airplane with a piece of string as my only prevention from a final rendezvous with gravity.

no thunks, already dud ut for much luss in New Zuland.

I would like to do it. Does the normal insurances cover any mishaps?

is this a one off thing ??

ive been looking for skydiving in Pattaya but the drop zone was closed due to an "accident"

whats the story morning glory ?

10 000bt? its alil steep but ill pay it for the rush

i did it in Africa for less but my gosh , theres nothing like it

Just for info tickets to the air show are 300 baht so i/m informed by a friend who went yesterday. :o

I would love to do it again. Did it in NZ a few years back. But i paid NZ$210. Way cheaper than the prices quoted at Pattaya. Why so expensive?

isn't everything in Pattaya expensive ??

I've never been there but i booked 3 days there in Dec , jusk for skydiving tho ,well thats if they are still jumping otherwise ill see what all the fuse is about with Pattaya :o

anyone know if theres regular jumps happening still ??

If you're talking about cordless bungee jumping, then I think the service is still available at all high rise buildings. :o

I did it many times, years ago in Australia. None of that wussy tandem stuff - solo for me all the way. The first 3 were static line jumps [the chute opens after you exit the plane, after that increasing free fall times. Nothing like it. I was taught by a ruff ex English Army Sargeant who yelled at me for 3 days, 6 hours a day. I told him he should have joined ACDC - his voice must have been indestructible!

btw I had a tangle on my second freefall, had to go to emergency. He told me it only happens once in 10,000 jumps - so I could happily jump worry free 9,998 times more!!!

Congrates Merlin for sounding like a real happy spastic :o you deserve a medal

I hope you were suitably grateful to the trainer who shouted at you so much - at least his instructions were embedded in your mind as a result of his efforts.

That you were able to sucessfully open the Reserve on only your second Freefall is a significant tribute to both him and you. (Unless he packed your Main of course! lol)

Hmmm - I wonder if I'll get discount at Pattaya if I take my old '70's era shortlined ParaCommander!?

Probably not!

Well at least it's people jumping out of planes. The condo free-fallers were getting a little monotonous.

Thanks for that Merlin.......gees I was thinkin about it but now......???

Hmm, insurance coverage for..

KEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRSPPLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTT :o

I'd love to have the guts to do it, I'm just not sure if I'd have guts after I'd done it?!!

(You inserted into tarmac on a left hand thread)" I hope you have adequate cover?"

Thai official

"ha ha ha (insert thai smile here) mai mee, mai mee"

"khun farang, insurance mai dee"

i read the title of the thread and i thought "ideal"

i've always fancied doing something like this

...but i'm in the uk at the mo'

....and giving it second thoughts i probably wouldn't be able to do it

apparently i am one of the "loudest" screamers to ever come down the pattaya park tower, of course i had been giving it all the bravado before i got to the 58th floor :o

so i doubt i'd do too well looking out of a plane
