I used to tell people “Yeah, of course I have jumped out of airplanes before!” This strip kind of shows what I meant by that. In reality I am pretty scared of jumping out of a perfectly safe aircraft while it’s actually flying. But it’s on my bucket list…
A REMINDER for everybody btw: We have Christmas Cards!! Check them out in our shops and order them soon!! The post offices are getting busy already with Christmas traffic.
Nothin’ wrong with skydiving – did it for fifteen years, until I blew my knee.
“Show me a perfectly safe airplane, and I’ll stay in it.”
Truth be told, I was also a single-engine pilot, but that was only for four years…
Jumping out of airplanes isn’t anywhere NEAR as exciting as being yanked up INTO them – ref: “Fulton Skyhook.”
I have one week left before being thrown out of an airplane myself… mixed feelings…
If at first you don’t succeed.
Perhaps skydiving’s not for you!
If you want to experience the element, get out of the vehicle.
