JJohnson 0 #26 February 16, 2003 My ass, for two reasons....not so great landings and the lack of weight in my wallet from spending all my cash on jumps and gear.JJ "Call me Darth Balls" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ECVZZ 0 #28 February 16, 2003 I've actually been very lucky. Other than a sore ankle, I had a downwinder on my 3rd or 4th static line in which I broke my nose, and ripped my lower lip loose from my gums inside my mouth. Used Lidocaine jell for about a month, and everytime it wore off it just puckered my asshole! Healed up nicely in the long run, and since it was all internal I don't even have a scar!G.

masher 1 #30 February 17, 2003 Strained my right knee and ankle on landing. Not too badly though.-- Arching is overrated - Marlies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dove 0 #31 February 18, 2003 The worst? My leg - shattered tibial plateau... OUCH! Other victims? 2 broken ribs; 1 broken thumb; bruised lung; nerve damage in arm (since healed); trauma to stomach, diaphragm and intestines; sliced tongue; and scraped up a leg pretty bad on a night jump gone wrong (but still incredibly fun). Still... skydiving is the greatest thing that ever happened to me. Yeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Fall in dove. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LouDiamond 1 #32 February 18, 2003 Did you land off, if not was the dz light when this happened? This ties in with another thread in the general forum and I'm curious."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
