He had to keep it simple, of course because it had to be done quickly. They must have used an altimeter w

Not a chance that I will ever do this and I'm not recommending it- it's not what I would call Arkansas Family Fun, but I know it is on the "bucket lists" of some of you out there and I was surprised to find information on skydiving in Arkansas.

A blind man was describing his favorite sport, parachuting. When asked how this was accomplished, he said that things were all done for him: "I am placed in the door with my seeing eye dog and told when to jump. My hand is placed on my release ring for me and out I go with the dog.""But how do you know when you are going to land?" he was asked. "I have a very keen sense of smell, and I can smell the trees and grass when I am 300 feet from the ground" he answered."But how do you know when to lift your legs for the final arrival on the ground?" he was again asked. He quickly answered: "Oh, the dog's leash goes slack."

George H.W. Bush celebrated the grand reopening of his presidential museum on Saturday with a surprise skydive, his sixth and his first since 2004, when he jumped to celebrate his 80th birthday. Bush jumped on Saturday strapped to an expert from the Army Golden Knights parachute team, as he did three years ago. His first parachute jump was in 1944 when his plane was shot down over the Pacific island of Chi Chi Jima. Share This

Has anyone done skydiving before? I did that 4 years ago before Clayton came along, which was a good decision cos' I wouldn't have done it if I was a mom then! DH and myself took up the courage to skydive from 14,ooo fit (tandem of course!) in Cairns and that was an experience of a lifetime. Honestly, I almost thought I was going to pass out when I was in the air at that time!Someone asked me if I will skydive in Hawaii... I looked at him and replied with a firm 'NO'! Actually, I was told that skydiving is becoming one popular sport in this state, challenging the popularity of surfing.

This has been a crazy weekend from A to Z!!! Am actually in the US again, good change of scenery from the UK especially with that horrendous weather, which is supposedly very nice now, but it doesn’t matter since it’s sunny everyday here. Anyways, I’m a real adrenaline junkie and have tried lots of roller coasters and crazy rides, even reverse bungee jumping where your body needs to handle 6G. Having said that, there has always been one thing that topped my list of things to do, Skydiving. That is exactly what I did!!! It was never on my mind during this trip, but a few girls suggested it and there was no hesitation. I suppose, it was meant to happen as initially, the girls were supposed to go 2 weeks ago but it didn’t work out. So this time, we ended up being 6, 3 girls and 3 guys. The venue: Williamstown, New Jersey, the largest skydiving site in eastern US. Obviously, there were loads of papers to be signed, mainly outlining the risks and stating that “you cannot sue us

A man goes skydiving for the first time. After listening to the instructor for what seems like days, he is ready to go. Excited, he jumps out of the airplane.About five seconds later, he pulls the ripcord. Nothing happens. He tries again. Still nothing. He starts to panic, but remembers his back-up chute. He pulls that cord. Nothing happens. He frantically begins pulling both cords, but to no avail.Suddenly, he looks down and he can't believe his eyes. Another man is in the air with him, but this guy is going up! Just as the other guy passes by, the skydiver - by this time scared out of his wits - yells, "Hey, do you know anything about skydiving?"The other guy yells back, "No! Do you know anything about lighting gas stoves?"  Subscribe in a reader
