I have always wanted to skydive and soon I will get a chance! I wanted to see if any other shroomerites has ever gone before... Im sure someone's gonna mention the member who smoked DMT before they jumped

I was blazing with a couple of friends recently and we managed to scare ourselves out of ever going skydiving by imagining what it'd be like if the chute didn't deploy.

Yep I did.
Cool story too.
I was at my parent cottage in a village where there is a skydiving station (store) (area?) whatever
So I woke up one morning, I had nothing to do. I picked up the yellow pages book for a reason I forgot, opened it and landed on the skydiving page.
I called them at 10 in the morning, they told me they had a spot for noon...
I took it.
Basically, I woke up with nothing to do, 2 hours later I was jumping out of a plane. woot

I knew someone was going to mention that! That would be an ultimate dream for me but I doubt the place I am going to would let that happen! It looks too professional of a place to allow you to get fucked up before a jump.
I guess I could smoke it....right after I jump from the plane
Imagine trying to smoke a bowl while falling through the sky!!!

i went skydiving about a year ago... incredibly intense experience.. especially as you look down seconds prior to be thrown out of an airplane at 13500 ft

I went once, it was a solo jump from 3000 ft where your chute opens right when you jump. Lots of the people in my group had some nasty landings and lost skin but my landing was perfect. It was fun but I got more of an adrenaline rush from bungie jumping in Nanaimo, BC.

I heard somewhere that it is hard to breath during the free fall with the air blasting at you. Any truth to that or just second hand misinformation?

It doesn't take your breath away when you jump from a plane, because you don't get the feeling of free-fall you get when you jump from a bridge or other stationary structure.
I used to fly a jump plane. If I took five new guys up for first jump, I could count on always bringing one of them back, too scared to go through with it.  RR

Despite already wanting to do this for most of my life, I REALLY wanna see if it gives me an adrenaline rush... I have recently become void of it and Im hoping that jumping out of a plane will fix that!

Skydiving and bungee jumping are two things I plan to do as soon as I get the chance.

I plan on going sometime within the next 2 years. I do not know about a shroomery remember skydiving while on DMT. I have read a Erowid report of a guy smoking DMT before he skydived.
