Wayne Drehs, reporter for ESPN, gets the E-ticket ride with the Black Knights skydiving demo team...and this is how he describes skydivers and skydiving...


"Put it this way -- picture the wildest, craziest roller coaster you've ever been on," said cadet Ryan Dennison. "Picture that on steroids. That's what it's like."

"They're like fourth-graders the night before a field trip."

Enjoy! Great article...

They say I suffer from insanity.... But I actually enjoy it.

I liked this description: "A human being, suspended in the middle of the sky, looking up at you with an I-just-met-the-girl-of-my-dreams smile and a see-you-back-at-the-dock sort of wave."

What a fun piece! I also liked reading the one on my alma mater, LSU. He hit the spirit of that school dead on too.

Yeah! There's a reason we call it 'airgasm', huh!
