I have!!! It was so awesome! I have pictures at home that I will try to scan and post. Ask me anything you want to know! I was the biggest chicken nobody thought I would go through with it and I did it, I don't even go on roller coasters! Skydiving was awesome, I would do it again in a second!

I went in Las Vegas a couple of years ago and it was awesome!! IT was so beautiful, of course it was scary being in the plane but once you jump, it's fine.

Re: anyone been skydiving?
You really don't feel like you are falling and most importantly you do not get that feeling of your stomach dropping. You are falling so fast (over 100mph) that the wind is hitting you so hard, it almost feels like you are stationary and the wind is just blowing at you like you've never felt it before. Think of driving 80MPH and then sticking your hand out the window. Some of my friends thought it was hard to breathe because of the wind, but I didn't get that feeling. Also, when the shoot opens you do not go flying upward the way it seems on TV. That is an illusion because the person who pulled the shoot has slowed down so much and the person who is filming is dropping at a higher rate of speed. It is absolutely amazing! I loved every minute of it. Make sure you get the video, it is well worth the money.

I went to Skydive in East Moriches. I think they moved to the airport in Calverton. It was so much fun. I did not have the 'stomach drop' feeling either. You actually have to step out onto a rail outside the plane before you jump. Some people think that it is the scariest part. Have fun and Happy Birthday!
