The skydiver is the only sane one of the bunch. Stepping out of a
Casa-212, at 12,500 feet, with 20 of your friends with you and turning 4
or 5 points. Dumping the main at 2,000 and swooping in to a perfect one
point landing. Only thing better is the last load of the day dumping the
main at 6,000 reaching into your jumpsuit and pulling out a beer or two
and enjoying the peaceful ride. I sure do miss skydiving.



Land on your head once too often?


Actually no, I never landed on my head from a skydive. In fact I never
had to use my reserve, 1700 jumps all landing on a main canopy. Do you
want to read the newspaper articles written about me and my skydiving?



Yes.

Don needs some enlightenment.
