lol, yup the humor out of these guys cracks me up every time I see them.
My coach (Angus-the dark shirt), got one of those "...for dummies" books and photshopped the front to "tandem skydiving" for dummies, its SO cool watching him play with the video guy as someone is getting ready for their first tandem dive_Jeff (video) focusses on the passengers harness with the big 'DANGER' sign on the back, and Angus reading "quick emergency tips" out of his 'for dummies' dropzone humor rules!
rig ME up & I'll introduce myself as the tandem master for their jump (in my chair), during our intro I'll say something like "OK, during the skydive I am the brains of the operation, and during landing your the legs, so you need to do as I say, OR we will BOTH have a VERY bad day).
After their nervous gawking, Angus will appear, and I'll say "I got to go to the bathroom, will you take this one?", and they will be SO relieved to jump w him.
Dang! This is some funny stuff! I am hurting from laughing so hard now... LOL I LOVE the Bad day part! Then you top it all off with... I need to go to the nathroom... LMAO That is PRICELESS!
I want to see that one on video... I am in tears... Brilliant sense of humor!
Hey Minna. I've been watching your skydiving videos and it's making me want to come along. Maybe I'll join you in the Spring. It's wonderful to see the joy in your face when you're flying.
Yes. It was the best experience of my life. I didn't do too much thinking about it beforehand, except that I was excited to give it a try. I was just grinning from ear to ear in the plane and jumped with total faith that it would be fine. Interestingly, I don't like free fall as much as I like it when the chute first opens and then you just float down so peacefully. I'm already thinking of doing the solo jump. Thanks Minna for introducing me to this amazing sport and such great people.
It means much to me to be able to develop a full set of videos othes can give a try, who have disabilities -incase they also wish to skydive solo like i will one day.
this is the 'instructional/how were doing it' video, but the other one is more fun to watch.
thanks again for stopping by.
by the way was that your AFF video i saw on your name link? -its cool! my bream for soon!
RESPECT!! Don´t lose your courage...
