Check off number 2 on the 30 for 30 list. That's right, folks. I completely rocked my skydiving adventure. After a whole lot of scary nerves and one day of wind delays, I successfully dove out of an airplane at 10,500 feet. There may be a little bit a crazy in me, but this was, without a doubt, the most insane and yet amazing thing I have EVER done!!! Completely indescribable. I still can't believe I did it. Anyway, documented proof below:
Drove to Richmond, IN for the big plunge.
Unfortunately, there were wind delays and so day 1 was a no go.
Me doing my "it's too windy to jump" pose.
Day 2 proved to be ideal weather. Me suiting up for the big jump.
Getting my harness just right.
I was checking out the plane outside the hanger just before my impending doom.
Loading up on the plane.
Taking off and flying up to 10,500 feet where we jumped out of the plane and free fell for about 10 seconds at around 115 miles an hour. A total rush!!!
Thank goodness for parachutes. Yep, that's me.
Gliding in for the landing.
Landing back down on on solid ground. Wow! What an adventure! I still am on an adrenaline rush and can't believe I actually did it!!! It is one of those things that literally takes your breath away. Completely awesome!!!
