I jumped out in East Troy Wisconsin in the middle of fall when all the colors of the leaves were changing. It was like plunging yourself into a tye-dye paradise!
The plane ride up was just was exciting. The inside of the plane was gutted except for two long benches that ran parallel with the fuselage. They were also blasting Metallica during the entire flight up.
Have fun dude you will LOVE it!!!

Cool man. I'll definitely take your space in line!!!!
Im pretty damn tall and super skinny fyi and when I went the dude that was tandem to me was short and fat. The landing was pretty much like trying to land on two old toothpicks with a midget backpack on that weighed like a boulder. I almost turned into a pancake.....and then i didn't it again.

It was amazing in every way, at midnight the night before a friend of mine changed his mind and decided to go too. The tandem jumper who was strapped in with me was the coolest/nicest guy ever and made it really chill and a lot easier to go through with one I was actually there.
shLong's description of it was perfect too, its exactly what you'd expect but way more intense

Yeah the second they opened the door it felt like winter outside, and the second the parachute opened it felt like my ears exploded and kept popping lol
Id definitely recommend to anyone considering it, its a very unique experience, there's nothing quite like jumping out of a plane

I normally tell people to wear ear plugs, but I forgot to tell you. My bad, bro.
That also helps with the pressure changes.
My gf's ears were kinda fucked up for like a week or two afterwards from the pressure changes.

S'all good man, ill know for next time, a friend of mine saw the video of us doing it and now he's hellbent on trying it himself so ill probably be going one more time in a few weeks with him, definitely going to be bringing earplugs for that one
My ears were relatively fine within an hour or two after, my friend was complaining the entire day
I was too nervous to say anything cool before the jump too, so the video is me just being boring and predictable with everything i said and noticeably distracted

Sounds like a waste of a perfectly good airplane, I would want someone to fly it for me so we can do it again sometime

Skydiving by myself scares me I've never went skydiving before so for my first time I most DEF would want someone to go down with me and pull the string. Maybe if I went a few times with a trainer and knew the routine but the thought of the parachute malfunctioning scares me. Down the street from my mothers house they have this spot where you pay $200 and some buck and they take you up with someone and skydive right there not need for an appointment or anything to go. Someday I hope to go it would be cool to be able to say I jumped out of an airplane before.

I don't know what it's like everywhere but here you have to do one or two tandem jumps first regardless if you have the training or not. $200 is pretty cheap, I'd jump on that.

how many times might vary by state but i think every state its mandatory for someone who knows what theyre doing to be strapped to you X amount of times before you can even apply for a license to jump by yourself.
Its scary but id definitely do it if youre considering or want to, you'll have a permagrin for atleast a few days after
They gave me the option to pull the chute but specified not to anytime before 5000 feet, i was like "nah we'll probably die somehow if its left up to me so you can pull it" 
It was 195 for me and 120 for the video, 205 if you just show up with booking it first
