How to sky dive
"Amazing--free fall feels like nothing I've ever felt before."
How I did it: Military. Airmanship program at the Academy. There are about 3 weeks of ground training and then I practiced arching in a wind tunnel (this simulates free fall) and then I geared up and went 4,500 ft up and jumped out of the plane myself. My average free fall time was 7 seconds for all 5 jumps, and I earned my jump wings.
Lessons & tips: If you're doing this yourself, make sure you get quality ground training. Make sure you're confident enough in your training that you want to jump out of that plane! Arch, look up, and pray your chute opens... :)
