Went skydiving!
 
And it really wasnt all that I thought it would be >:( Jumped at 11,000 feet and reached a speed of 181mph. It just isn't what I though it would be. All it is is jumping, feeling a lot of wind and loud ass wind noise, and then the shoot pops. It was just like floating there with a lot of noise (imagine sticking your head out of the window going 180). The best part was the parachute down, did some sideways deathspins and flips (now that was fun!) but that was it. Anybody else dive?

I hope you die!!! oh wait, never mind, I don't hate you and you are alive after jumping. the sensation that your balls were falling off wasn't good for you? I want to go skydiving but I haven't had a chance/I'm a lazy ass.

I was really hoping that I would feel like my balls were going to fall off but it's nothing like that. I thought it was going to be like that feeling you get when your on a rollercoster and your stomach goes into your chest but that doesnt happen. It was more relaxing than anything. Now im getting really big into extreme sports. Next I'm para sailing off the dunes at Kitty Hawk next week. Anyone want to join? Projekteg you live in NC too, Wanna have some fun?

You dumbass. You did it wrong. You're supposed to jump without the parachute, otherwise it's not as fun.

I have wanted to go sky diving for a long time. I always thought it would be like the coolest thing evAr, but since JD says it's not, maybe I can wait. :(

Yeah, I tried it out once, it's exactly like you say, just real peaceful. Wouldn't do it again though.

I think the people that are like OMG that ---- was the best are just saying that just because the fact that your are jumping out of a plane. The actual feeling isnt that great but being able to say "I jumped out of a plane" is pretty cool.
