judedre 0 #1 June 11, 2002 Well If you are like me and enjoy watchin things fall from a great height your average roll of toilet paper will do the trick, as i discovered this weekend while takin a crap in the bunkhouse toilet 20 mins before my load i looked in that little cabinet under the sink and it was just FULL of rolls of TP..Hmm i wondered while stuffing one down my jumpsuit i wonder what this will look like from 4 Grand,,, Well let me tell u it looked awesome so good in fact i did it 3 more times that day and i might never jump without a roll of TP again i even talked a few tandem masters in to doing it aswell.... You can not imagine how long ya average roll of TP is until u have flung one under canopy and watch it get bigger and bigger as it unrolls to the length of a few football fields,I will be doing it again this weekend and will attempt to get some pics and i suggest you all do the same and see who gets the best pic of SKY TP, go on set the roll free instead of lettin it end up up somones butte let it float endlessly through the sky.....

ChromeBoy 0 #6 June 11, 2002 Might as well not wear any drawers and take a shit on top of the dz at 4k as well. Then wipe your ass with the toilet paper and let the rest of it go.

nacmacfeegle 0 #9 June 11, 2002 Sprinkling glitter (keep it away from your gear, its basically broken glass) or confetti from your canopy ride over the watching whuffoes is kinda fun, or dropping little toy paratroopers, water bombs are a blast, we used to take bubble blowing stuff up in the plane as well, .But I draw the line at a low pass over a barbecue to chuck the grill out cos its been forgotten at the beach....CyaDGR# 37Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.

lucky13500 0 #10 June 11, 2002 What an absolute gas! (pun intended) Canopy rides will never be the same again!!! There I was at 3000 feet enjoying my post-terminal rush, when lo and behold, my solitude was interrupted by the most magnificent sight. Was it a bird? was it a plane? No, it was the most surreal vision of 2000 sheets of Charmin flying in TIGHT FORMATION. This magnificent Airborne Anaconda wound its way ethereally through the skies over our DZ captivating all who beheld it. Dudes! Don't waste that stuff on your arses anymore! Set the TP Free!! On an environmetal note, taking our cue from the fishing industry, we practice strict release-and-catch policies. The minute the last sheet hits the field our ground crew rolls into action, mobilising a rapid pursuit method of cleanup whereby one of our hapless crew leans precariously out of the passenger side of our TPRV (TP recovery vehicle), arms extended and gathers up great armfuls of the snowy debris.SET THE TP FREE!!!

Slappie 9 #14 June 11, 2002 Ok before we get to into this.. There has to be some safety? What would a long train of TP do to another person under canopy? Me personaly I don't think it would do much. It could probably annoy the hell outa some unsuspecting RW person. Or scare the shit outa someone who couldn't fingure out what it was..Still I wanna try it. I'm even going to pull high so I can watch the whole roll.. maybe even carry a second so I can launch it at 1000 and try to touch the ground with the roll before it all spooled off...I can see it now..

nacmacfeegle 0 #15 June 11, 2002 Andre, now look what you've started, an environmental disaster --loo roll spread out all over the country..., sudden increase in demand for Andrex (wait a minute, Andre+Andrex wtf?), shares rocket, stock market collapse, lack of loo rolls on DZs across the country, global anarchy at the hands of the Tumblephuqs. Very irresponsible.So was it single or two ply? Plain or coloured?Bwahahaha you little scamp...CyaDGR# 37Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.

nacmacfeegle 0 #20 June 11, 2002 Just had a an idea, tie a small golden retriever puppy to the end of the loo roll and it will probably self recover for you, hence no litter.Brits will get his joke, Colonial Cousins will just have to visualise the "Andrex Puppy"CyaDGR# 37Remember how lucky you are to see and touch the sky; the blind may only dream.
