Saw that on tv awhile back. Fourty years ago would have loved a try at sky dive but not just a net!

I've sky dived a few times but I'll never understand what this guy did. OK, it was cool for 1 minute...and then what???

I'm sorry...........but jumping out of a perfectly good airplane is not on my bucket list

My thoughts exactly.

When my brother was 22 he took the skydiving lessons, did 2 jumps and was going to do a third jump.

He said, " I was standing in the door getting ready to jump when I thought, why am I jumping out of an airplane that is still under control and flying. I turned around and sat back down. Never even thought about doing it again."

So, whatever floats the boat ... he is in a club of one I suppose now. That is not something I would even contemplate doing. Ever.

So wtf was that all about? Landing in a net after jumping out of an airplane at 18,000 ft?

The TV show it was on was to set the record for highest jump with out a cute.The net had to be just right to give enough with out making ground.Of course a half hour of build up to see the few minutes just shown.

Oh he did have an emergency chute on ...it was on his chest.....just in case things went south and he couldn't hit the intended target..
I'm assuming the conditions were perfect for the jump...very little wind...perfect temps...etc etc before he jumped...
But still trying to hit such a small target from 25K feet is quite an accomplishment in itself....something I wouldn't do even for a million bucks [emoji106]
