John4455 0 #2 August 15, 2003 I ALMOST got to do a helicopter jump. It was at the dz on a wednesday. Took the day off work. The helicopter showed up, they took it off the trailer, and it wouldn't start. I ALMOST did a high altitude jump. 22000 feet out of the casa. I was on the first load, breathing oxygen feeling great. Somewhere about 20,000 feet, someone at the back of the plane that had drank some red gatorade that morning got sick and coughed up the red gatorade and it came out of his nose. The pilot saw that and thinking it was altitude sickness immediately took us down to 13000 ft. I wasn't able to do the other loads, I had to jump with the tandems the rest of the day. Who knows maybe one day I will ALMOST get to do a balloon jump! How do ya like it Johnny? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
