      it feels nothing like a free fall. As someone who goes on roller coasters i always thought it would feel like the drops but 10 times longer

      How does it compare to a roller coaster? Because I hate that stomach feeling I get when I get on roller coasters I can only imagine it’s 10 times worse skydiving

      @savageGene there is literally 0 stomach feeling, may be you can get it for a second during canopy opening, but you wont pay attention to it because you are literally overloaded with emotions, adrenalin etc.
      Just took my first jump and its a bliss

    I have my first jump in 5 days. I’m doing it to get some excitement and to see the earth falling from 14,000 feet. The guy that mentioned he quit drinking and took up skydiving... that’s amazing! As an alcoholic I feel that these intense activities could help me find a better view on life and find something else to do besides dwell and be sad. I’m so excited!!!! I feel this will help me in so many ways.

    I skydived for the first time yesterday, it's definitely not for everyone. The free-fall was absolutely terrifying for me, I found it hard to breath, I was absolutely freezing and at times I thought I could've passed out. I am afraid of heights, I have problems letting go of things as well as control issues due to being a passenger in 2 serious car accidents. The best thing for me to do was to put my faith and trust 100% into someone else's hands and try let go of everything. I'm so glad I did it and would recommend it for people as a therapy session but it was the exact opposite of fun for me. Hope this helps anyone wanting to try it out.

      Interesting observation, I almost feinted 2 times because of my lack of trust (and or lack of letting go) of my instructor. I still performed like a soldier but that was scary lol

    I was a bit worried that my heart would not make it in the freefall. My pulse must have been over 200 bpm. Other than that, probably the most amazing experience in my lifetime, and when the parachute opened, it was almost disappointing.

    I just watched this because I'm looking up videos of people's first experience. I'm skydiving for the first time very soon because I am trying to conquer my fears and I have very bad anxiety. Someone told me that skydiving would make everything look minuscule (fear-wise) --- but I have to say, when I saw the girl's face after she did it---she looked like she didn't feel well. I know her ear was clogged, but something was up. What was it? And then comment section kind of scared me too............ I'm so excited to do this, but I am SO terrified!
