How I did it: My graduation present from my parents was to go skydiving so my dad planned it out for me and we went to a place just north of the Mexican border.  The whole experience was really laid back and fun and the adrenaline surge was addictive.  We took a very small plane with only one seat for the pilot and went tandem.  As soon as the door opened and I fell out, I was just so incredibly excited and happy to be alive and experiencing this.  Highly recommended, don't think, just go!

Lessons & tips: Ask how the company does the video before you purchase it.  A friend's video that I watched was shot by a cameraman that jumped out before her and it turned out great. The company that I went with, however, had the camera strapped to my instructor and the footage is pretty so-so.
