Could you do this?

Could you do it?​

 

[Billo_Really]

This blows me away! Did you ever think a person could fly through the air as fast as a bullet without any artificial propulsion system?

[Mr. H.]

I could, but I don't wanna.

 

[daveman]

I doubt I'd be medically cleared to do it, but I'd love to!

 

[Unkotare]

I'd much rather do that than parachute from 150ft.

 

[Noomi]

Never would I even dream of doing something like that. If the parachute didn't open, there'd be nothing left of you to scrape up.

I am extremely acrophobic (fear of heights) which is why I respectfully defer to the Airborne. I hate flying and will do it only when unavoidably necessary. And it would take several very big men, a bloody struggle, or defense of a loved one to get me to jump out of a functional aircraft.

 

[Politico]

No problem.

 

[Oddball]

Fuckin-A right!

From that altitude, you'd have to be stopping me from jumping out of that contraption.

^^^ That. What a rushhhhhhhh!

True, but the burial would already be complete. They'd just have to put up a headstone.

I used to skydive.
With every jump I became more and more afraid of heights.
I had to stop before I became afraid of a staircase.

Ya wouldn't feel a thing.... and wow what a ride it would be to the bottom!

If the parachute doesn't open, it is the sudden stop at the end that is a problem.

 

[Jimmy_Jam]

Thanks for posting that. This is happening tomorrow from what I can see on the Internet. Wow. Gonna have to check that out.

 

[Old Rocks]

I pretty much feel the same way about that as I feel about climbing a mountain just becasue it's there. If there is something of interest geologically on the mountain, I will climb it. But not for just saying I've done it. If I take that kind of risk, there has to be a reward, either in knowledge gained or in financial gain.
