Shit we have, well many of us been chewing the fat here and joking around an increasing our boxing knowledge for years. You are all cool and hope life treats u well. Even the idiots who just argue and lie have a place. I need to say all that as I’m going to parachute this week, 16,000 feet out of a plane. I’m sure I’ll be fine I have 49 jumps only one bad injury but just Incase
Well bring a raincoat it is very wet and honestly mate there is no need. You can just land in an airport near London or walk through customs tooled right up with all your military gear and get on the Eurostar. There are no borders in Europe and we welcome invaders, even very pale white ones with Bibles.Quote:

Beanz it’s exciting. The view is amazing. It really gives you a lift. By the way I am not active military any longer. I’m just a dude doing what I do. M
The highest I've ever jumped into the void is the high diving board at the neighborhood pool. You're a braver man than I, @walrus ;D
Wow well have a good time. Film it with a GoPro and post it here. make sure the GoPro doesn't get any part of your face or then you will not want to post it here. It would be great to see that whole thing on film. I have seen jumpers film the whole thing and it is amazing
Yes I know you are just a dude now mate was just jesting about your invasion plans. I am not a huge fan of flying so I will take your word for it. I am not so bad now but had a really bad flight once and then made it worse by drinking too many glasses of cheap red wine (it was all they had left) and chain smoking roll ups (that tells you how long ago it was) to try and take my mind off the turbulence. It wasn't too bad until that stopped working and I just started singing out loud to distract myself, which didn't go down well. Fucking hell I had forgotten all about it ;DQuote:

Fuck, can't get any more cyberstalking than that, @Master right here he has crossed the line " ONE TOKE OVER THE LINE"
I should relate this story. I jumped one time and went into a terminal. I jumped out of the plane, well actually I was sitting at the door with my legs hanging outside and when I pushed off into oblivion I must not have arched right. You start spinning head over heel an maximum velocity just spinning and spinning on your way down. The force is such it is damn near impossible to pull out of it thus the name “terminal”. I remember briefly seeing the plane, ground, plane, ground. I think the force of it almost knocked me out. My buddy came up beside me and was going to attempt to grab me which would have put him at risk but somehow I regained my thoughts, pulled out of it and arched like my life depended on it (it did) looking back for I split second I did think it was the end and became very calm, I just went with the spin. The thought prob lasted .25 seconds but it did come into my mind
You should not be allowed anywhere near a parachute. You are injury prone.
miles u are definitely right. I actually fucked up my leg landing one time. A bunch of guys at work are going so I decided to give it a go. The place I’m going it so happens three people have died in the last 10 years or so. Before u jump you need to sign a bunch of waivers each one stating u can die. It has to be one of the most insane things u can do. It is such a weird feeling in your brain when u jump as u know it’s completely opposite of what one should do. It makes absolutely no sense to jump out of a perfectly goood airplane, but When you open that canopy it is absolutely amazing, you just need to pull the cords at the proper time at the landing .Quote:

I told him so many times he stopped talking to me. Not only should he be not allowed anywhere near a parachute he should just stick to potted plants and snow blowers with an occasional scallops wrapped in bacon or maybe even a salmon steak.Quote:

I also must admit he has thoroughly convinced me with this DNA debunking stuff and I fully accept that I am 91p Eskimo and about 6p Russian and no more than 3 p Slavic
FYI I was remembering fondly some of the points that I mentioned there period was not meant in any snide or sarcastic way
You two need make up sex. I would like to try some more risky things sometime. I will annoy the cat later and see if it goes into attack mode.
Alright I can accept that. Actually went I went of on my DNA test tangent it wasn’t just about proving you wrong I got pissed at those companies as it seems they are misleading people for personal gain which I think is bullshitQuote:

Assuming you landed safe and didn't spiral in? Next time wear one of those batsuits releasing chemtrails when you jump. My Grandfather jumped with the 82nd and my ol man jumped out of Hueys. All the power to you. To date all I've ever jumped from are coastal cliffs, motel roofs and a 'wagon' about every 5 years.
Don't forget your midnight escapades on the sand dunes. Those jumps may have been forgotten after several pints of 7-Eleven beer and microwave burritos 😁
Brock you need to clear out your pm box.
