Went skydiving today!!!!!!! OMG it was the coolest thing ever. I went through 1800 skydive and I must say they did a great very professional job. The instuctors were cool as hell and made it very fun. I will try to get the vid up soon. Anyone else here done it? I jumped from 14000 feet

i jumped the first time almost two years ago up in college station. when i can afford it, it will probably become a pretty regular thing that i do.
we jumped around 12,000 because of a cloud ceiling around 13,500. that was good though because the people on the ground could see us the entire way. it was a blast and everything i thought it would be, except shorter.

You should go, it's kindof liberating.....I was ready to go again and my chute hadn't even opened yet 
. When the chute opened, it was like hitting the end of a ******* chain, I actually had bruises on the top and around the front of my shoulders from stopping so hard. I had mine video taped and it didnt cost me but like 140. But that was at lake elsinore in CA....I guess not everything is more expensive in CA.
