I will jump out of a plane, but I will not....

Recommended Posts

...bungee jump or go on a roller coaster. My theory is this: with bungee jumping or a roller coaster, you're attached to something. If it goes, you go, and there's no second chances. At least with skydiving, you have 2 chances. :P

What aren't you willing to do that may seem tame or not as risky in comparison to skydiving?:ph34r:

I totally agree with the bungee part....

However I've got a slightly different theory behind it.
When I skydive it's all up to me and my skills to safely get a canopy above my head... And if I mess up then I've got a backup.
With a bungee attached to my ankles, well if it snaps I'm going head down into (best case) paralysis....


Horses.... Well 1000 lbs of stupid meat.... I'll try my best to stay the fuck away from them :D

...bungee...no way...no how...can't trust a cord to save my life. I'll do/have done many other things, just not bungee!

I will jump out of a plane, but I will not base jump.:|

Did two base jumps off the new river gorge bridge and found that it is not the sport for me. (my jumps went fine safety wise, but the risk level is too high for my personal comfort)



You mean you wouldn't do this?? :ph34r:

I was replying to the thread, not you. It's called being lazy. Open the thread, read thread, hit closest reply button as opposed to scrolling up.

But if you do want a reply directed at you, the new is scary. I had 50 BASE jumps when i went there and it still fucked with me.

Mountaineering. I tried my best to get killed climbing cliffs as a teenager, no ropes, no training. Having survived, that sport is ruined for me forever.:S:D

I've bungee jumped several times in Nanaimo, BC, and will certainly go again if I get a chance. I'd love to base, but can't get the okay from Vskydiver.:D

+1 on the Rosie O'Donnell thing.:)

He: "Yeah, the whip!"

She: "No, ANYTHING but the whip!!"

He: "ANYTHING???"

She: "The whip!!!"

Besides-you can get much kinkier than a chick with two tongue depressors and some croutons.

scuba dive......



Well thats a good thing.. I used to dive a lot.. but up here its a freakin challenge... BAD currents..... COOOOOOOOOLD water... usually sucky visibility.. and WAY too much gear.

My idea of good diving suit is a bathing suit.... covered with a tshirt to prevent straps from chaffing shoulders... emergency flotation.... and the normal fins...mask snorkle and a very simple tank/really good regulator...any more than that to protect aginst the cold... etc... I dont need to be diving there.:ph34r:





My choice would be donorcycles.... people kept trying to kill me with their 2 ton pieces of crap... I totalled a couple bikes.... so donorcycles are off my list of fun things to play with on the road.
