  • Опубліковано 6 лют 2021
  • On Sunday morning, 31st January 2021, I forever offset the number of times I had taken off in a plane from the number of times I had landed in one.
    From 20,000 feet Ilka and I fell at around 200kph for about 80 seconds. Then I even got to steer before we landed!
    I had an incredible time and would highly recommend it.

    Rob: I'd like to reach back and pull my parachute cord
    Instructor: Okay, make an Athletics check
    Rob: Uhh... Nat 1.
    Instructor: Oh, that IS unfortunate. As you reach back, you fumble around for the cord but are having a difficult time locating it. You finally grasp what you are fairly certain is your parachute cord and pull it, only to realize you just released your rigging. You're now tumbling towards the ground at terminal velocity with your rigging above you. What do you do?

    Wow, I didn't believe my eyes, when I saw your t-shirt during the stream, but now I do. Such a bravery, respect for doing it and in such an effortless manner, Rob! It always have amazed me what are humans capable of! Skydiving has been my dream for decades (even had night dreams about it), but I haven't find the courage to do it and you have, it's wonderful, I'm so glad you did it. And flying suits you, to be honest. :) Also I think, it'll be great to rewatch the D&D episode with Bodger's skydiving after this video, it adds so much depth to this episode. :) Just wondering, was this skydive the one time experience for you, or have you jumped again since then (or do you want to)?

      The pressure change you experience when skydiving is very minimal compared to scuba-diving. The pressure at ground level is ~1bar, at 20000ft you have ~0.5bar. Therefore you experience a pressure change of +0.5bar. Thats the equivalent of descending 5m from the surface in the same time (1bar -> 1.5 bar). From my personal experience, and considering the duration if the fall, I would say you descent much faster than 5m/90sec when scubadiving. Another difference is the maximum pressure gradient. While at skydiving you have (theoretically) a maximum difference of 1 bar (jumping from outside the atmosphere, perfect vacuum), under water you have basically no limit. For each 10m you descend you add an additional 1bar of pressure. So at around 20m (~the adviced maximum depth for beginner divers you already have a pressure difference 4 times bigger than what Rob experienced. I guess the scubadivers can give advice to the skydivers, not otherwise. 🤔
