I'll be jumping out of an airplane over Houston.
Here's hoping my chute opens.

That is awesome man! I have always wanted to go skydiving, I'll do it one day too. So is this like a "Hooray I don't have cancer" thing? Because I may steal your idea once I get the all clear. Have fun and good luck!

Do it. It's awesome.
13,000 feet, 1 minute of free fall, which feels like nothing you've experienced, then 4 minutes of floating to the ground.
I put pics up on my Facebook. Daniel Schmaniel.

That was awesome. You should always be introduced by GnR.

Yeah, I'm definitely going again. Don't know when, but I am.
The free-fall isn't like a rollercoaster, your stomach doesn't twist and turn, it's just... fun.
The only part that wasn't great was that it was 107 degrees while we waited and it was just an open hangar, no air conditioning.

I could never bring myself to step out of an airplane. I just... couldn't. I'm impressed.
