Do you make your living skydiving and what do you do?

Recommended Posts

I made my liuving at skydiving for many years, I lived on the air show circuit, and did jumps at special events. I was sponsored by Toyota, Gillette, MacDonalds Tobacco, and others...and I had a lot of equipment provided. Two chuteless jumps and High Altitude jumps helped bring interest from the public. CSPA suspended me twice for life, and they kept opening their big mouth, which the press couldnt resist making a deal out of. that helped me quite abit. I worked on many television shows and commercials, and even had a beer commercial done about me, ( I have never tasted beer in my life). It was sure an interesting ride, and then I got heavy into sponsored hot air ballooning. Good money from both if you work it right. I wish I still had some of thoser bucks today. Bill Cole D 41.

I do tandems. I used to pack.

I can't really say I "make" a living, since I technically live off of student loans that also pays for my school, but it helps me keep my skydiving addiction..I mean, habit...I mean, hobby going.

AND its mucho mucho fun.
