Guy jumps off cliff...doesn't go as planned

[MikeBrownsJob]

It looks surreal. Like, I can't really imagine what that must be like

Funny thing is once you are in the air and your chute is out it's the most peaceful experience ever. It's just the buildup. Actually loading up in your harness. Hearing the plane gas up. Walking towards the plane. Loading up into the plane, knowing you are about to jump out. ..The buildup is the worst part. I try not to look at the windows to see how high we are. I know just by the feel of the plane. When we finally stand up and hook up That's when the butterflies really kick in. You just got to focus on exiting properly and pray that the chute comes out as it should. Once I'm out I know I'm landing safely. Lol at 200 ft you are supposed to slip(pull your risers the opposite of your drift to brace) I start bracing at like 700ft as long as no one is below me or coming towards me. fukk that. Crazy thing is there's been times on commercial flights where I'm scared shytless because I know if something goes wrong, I'm helpless. Knowing that I'm capable of handling a parachute and not having one really does suck.

this is making me reconsider skydiving on my bucket list

Really the dumbest thing you can do. Only reason I ever did my first jump is because I had a 5"4 100 pound female Major behind me. I had to go. If she was going out so was I ..I cried after my first night jump. I was pissed off that we were actually doing it. You couldn't see shyt. Not even the drop zone. I thought for sure I was landing in a tree or water. It was so damn dark. I landed so soft. I broke down as I packed my chute. I was so damn happy and emotionally drained. Went from pissed off, thinking about quitting to sheer terror and fear in my heart to accepting my fate to not giving a fukk to thank god all within 15 minutes. There is no reason for you to do that yourself. Take it from me. Don't do it. It's stupid. The risk is way too much. So you land safely. No one cares. You just have a cool story to tell. But you could easily die and if that happens you are just another idiot who doesn't know when to sit the fukk down.

You jumped so the girl would not show you up? They would have to force me out the plane door and fight me into the black abyss. What i look like VOLUNTARILY flipping my black ass into the void all laddy-dah?

Yes. In the military having your wings is a right of passage. Think about World War 2 and the paratroopers that jumped into Normandy. Bullets ripping through the plane, planes going down and dudes still jumping out ..We don't jump into battle today at least not line units anymore because there is no operational need for it, but they don't make em like they used to. I know we like to piss on the baby boomers for their pitfalls when it comes to racial issues and their insensitivity to our plight today regarding the economic crash and our perceived laziness as youth, but that generation of military men had balls of steel.

Yeh I've calmed down since but that was just the worst experience of my life. I was scared shytless.

Why Cacs always testin' death?

Their lives are pretty boring. Don't have their own culture, don't face much adversity, etc.

They have to spice it up with something.

This dumb cluck was so preoccupied videotaping his friend's skydive+ kite flying that (when kite-flying man flared he chute to decelerate) videotaping dumby tangled his own parachute and fought with it for the last 2000 feet.
The worried emoticon/emoji when he cannot feel his feet is cute. Then he needs cpr until the ambulance arrives. Terrifying not being able to breathe for yourself!!! Asthmatics know.

Dumby broke his neck and lost the use of all 4 limbs.

Hilarious editing.
I knew the song and was like, what will happen when the drop comes ?
Then I saw that sharp piece of rock sticking out and the proximity of the drop getting closer and actually thought he was about to get shank by a cliff. Good for him he didn't die.
