"Full coverage as a skydiver means you will pay what is called a ?flat

of companies charge a flat extra of $2.50 to $3.00 per thousand for
recreational sky divers. So, on $100,000 you would pay $250 to $300
extra per year to be covered. One company really tries to paint you
into a box with this breakout ?If 50 or less jumps per year tentative
$3.00 per $1,000 flat extra. If 51-100 jumps per year tentative $5.00
per $1,000 flat extra. If 101-200 jumps per year tentative $7.50 per
$1,000. If over 200 jumps per year tentative $10.00 per $1,000 extra?.
Essentially the more exposure the higher the cost."

I was paying about an extra $1100 a year for my life insurance when I
was working. *400 g policy. *Smoker.
Hey, what if I had a butt in my mouth while free-falling?
Probably get sparks in my eye or smoke in my nose.
Anyway, sounds about the same extra premium for "dangerous conduct."
