Darminion 0 #1 August 1, 2005 I am very proud to announce that I made my 100th jump this weekend at Gold Coast Skydivers in Moss Point, MS. I had been planning in for months to propose to Jana, my girlfriend of six years, on my 100th jump. I did a tandem jump and they had her in the landing area to catch the tandem and pie me when I landed. When we landed I stayed down on the ground and waited for her to come up to me and I asked her to marry me. She is also a fellow skydiver. Jana I love you very much and am really happy to be able to spend my life with you. I will post pictures as soon as I get them.Anvile Brother #59 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chaoskitty 0 #6 August 1, 2005 Maybe he has too much money. Whats that movie where Richard Pryor has to spend or give away a buttload of cash before he can inherit an assload more? I'd buy all my whuffo friends an AFF course and all of my jumper friends brand new gear and 100 jump tickets. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelel01 1 #7 August 1, 2005 Brewster's Millions. Maybe he'd just never done one and wanted to know what it was like. Although I do have another theory. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chaoskitty 0 #8 August 1, 2005 Yes! I love that movie! Maybe it was his 100th tandem? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darminion 0 #9 August 1, 2005 no none of the above, I was trying to think of a way that I could ask her at the dz and incorporate a jump into it but I didn't want to do it on a jump with her because she only has 16 jumps and I didn't want her to be freaking under canopy, so I decided to do it for my 100th but I needed her in the landing area when I landed, so I did the tandem so I could get her out there to catch us when we landed. I had 4 tandems in the begining so no it wasn't my first one but it was surely my last one. It's really freaky being in the plane without a rig on.Anvile Brother #59 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hackb431 0 #10 August 1, 2005 Well done but thanks for raising the bar for the rest of us. Geez why can't every other guy in the world be a total dink? That way with me being only half a dink..... Congrats on the engagement! I wish you both a long and happy life with a lot of "ups and downs." (With safe landings of course)HackB A.K.A.
