  1. Well, not quite close to Gallaudet University. I imagine it's about an hour and a half of driving between Skydive Virginia! and Gallaudet. That is if you have a heavy right foot.
  2. Yo! Another deaf guy here! I skydive at Louisa, Virginia with Skycurlycat too. I recently started in the sport, and I'm about to complete the process of getting "A" license soon. Come on out at our dropzone if you want to play with us. You're more than welcome down there. I'd love to visit Perris and meet the deaf gang but it's not possible for me. Hope you will have a ton of fun at Perris!
  3. Of course its true... do a search on his name and you shoul dbe able to find a lot of info on the jump. You do need a presurized suit. And a lot of money. Also, there are 2 or 3 teams around the word right now trying to beat this record. Yeah, it is true! I just did a google search and found this link: http://www.space.com/businesstechnology/technology/space_diving_010608-1.html The picture of him jumping out 25 miles up from earth is insane!
  4. 103,000 ft?! I thought that wasn't possible because without a pressurized suit and oxygen supplement, you could certainly die up there. I could be wrong but is this really true?
