A Regular Day In My Life: Jumping Off An Airplane At 13,000 Feet
Those of you who've ever done a skydive in their lives know: that moment when they open the airplane's door, you believe being part of a movie!
Everything about it seems completely unreal and illogical. I mean from a strictly rational point of view there is no reason to jump out of a plane. Your brain starts to send out adrenaline into every single cell of your body, and all kinds of surviving techniques are activated.
Your body screams from the inside: don't do it!!!
Still you ignore all these alerts... because you're hungry. Hungry to live on the edge of life, hungry to exceed your own limits and to literally broaden your horizon.
You're on the hook of life.
I love those types of extreme sports since they teach you that you're able to overcome any sort of fear. These moments demonstrate us that we're capable of much more than we actually dare to do.
These adventures also put us into place, they make us humble. We suddenly recognize that we're just tiny little beings that don't even come close to the power of nature. We're so unimportant in this infinite universe.
Still, we're the ones who decide what and when. We're in charge of making the very best of our lives, every single day.
Go out and live! Life is short :-)
Best, Marly -

Great,
What you feel at the time of diving from the sky?
On a physical level you feel the aerodynamic drag, on a mental level you only feel pure freedom! :-)
Ohhhhhhhhh Waoooo @surfermarly you are real adventurer and enjoy your life much. I enjoyed and my daughter much excited to see you while diving.
Haha, so you made it become a little family event? Sweet! :-)
yes off course
That my friend was some incredible footage! Some of the most up close and personal I think I've ever seen involving sky diving. You seemed to have it together up there which is a feet in itself. Your instructor was great and did a super good job. He was kool! I had a buddy of mine who did the same as you but upon landing smashed his ankle so that was it for him. He never got back on the horse again but to each their own I say. What a great day this must have been for you! Happy and proud of and for you! Excellent!
That funny I'd never do that..
Hey surfermarly,
OMGGG, Jumping from the planeeee...Congrats for doing one of the things in life which people wish to do. It is on my bucket list.
I want to know, what were your thoughts while jumping off the plane? What it feels going down and what was in your mind at that time?
keep it up with your great expression..
thank you
@ uvoted
Great experience, but be careful.
you are a complete crazy. I could not look down🙈
It's so completely unreal that you can't even feel anything! It's hard to describe, but 13K feet is so high that you don't even notice that you're actually falling from the sky.
I can not open my eyes 🙈
