How to skydive
It made me
 "Absolutely Amazing"
How I did it: I was lucky to get a rain check for a jump from one of my friends. Simply made the appointment to jump and went and did it. Highly recommend the experience. Lessons & tips: Even if you are scared of heights, you should still do it. I am scared of heights, but once you are at 14000 feet the height experience is gone.

Feel fearless
How I did it: Checked in with a skydiving facility near where I lived. At the time you could do an AFF for your first jump as opposed to tandem or static line. I opted for this and it involved the better part of the day going over exit procedures, canopy control, contingency measures etc. I was assigned two jumpmasters who physically held on to me as I exited but detached partway through the 60 seconds of free fall once I had established good form and … Read how I did it…

So fulfilled & HIGH
How I did it: I just searched up the nearest skydiving resort near me, called them up, booked a tandem sky dive, and went! It was so easy I couldn't believe it. The worst part was the waiting, the bad thoughts. But honestly, its very safe, even the landing is very gentle. Will try AFF next time. Read how I did it…

Very happy
How I did it: Went to Queenstown New Zealand during a backpacking trip. Did a tandem jump from 15000ft which had 60 seconds of freefall. The freefall was amazing. It doesn't feel like you're plummetting to the ground. Once the parachute opens it all goes quiet again and it's a gentle glide to the ground. It really is the best thing I have ever done!

I found the place to do it. You can either go up to 10000 feet and do a tandem jump with 45 seconds of free fall or do an individual jump at 3000 feet but no free fall. Any thoughts?

Definitely the hardest goal for me. I think this would be a mind-blowing experience. I’ve traveled so many places, it’d be cool to see things in zoom-out mode but really feel part of Earth.
This will be a hassle, with organization and money. We’ll see.

I know people who’ve done this but it’s really out of character for me. In my dreams, though, I do some extreme shit!

It turns out that the skydiving place has a weight limit of 215… I just found out a couple weeks ago, not nearly enough time to get down there. This goal is getting pushed back a little, but I’m still planning on jumping at some point.
