the most expensive word in skydiving is.......

Recommended Posts

So far....

Skydiving Gear, Video Gear, Ankle Injury.

Skydiving gear roughly $5000
Video gear $2000 and counting...

The Ankle injury is currently at $1900, but I still need to do physiotherapy, so it'll probably be close to $3000 by the time I'm done. Thank god for insurance... $1900 has covered an emergency room visit, two visits to the orthopedic surgeon, and 45 minutes in an MRI machine. The MRI costing the most. THe amount of money Americans spend on healthcare is truely mind-blowing.

Call me a pinko bastard if you want, but there's somethings that just SHOULD be socialized.

I think if you are skydiving in the states, the most expensive words you could hear are "Air-lifted" or "Air ambulance" Don't you yanks have to pay for your own rides?:P



Negative. I've had three of the above (two airlifts and one air ambulance transfer), and my insurance has paid for all of them.

Welcome to the world of HMO's! Very similar to socialized medicine...where we all pay into the same pot and then the 'most' deserving get the treatments needed.
