Skydiving

Location: Para Centrum Texel , The Netherlands

Scary as it may seem, it was more exciting than most things I have done. Close second was the famous time I served as a boyfriend before being unceremoniously dumped.

My tandem instructor jumped with his khaki shorts and tee from 10,000 feet. I still am not sure if I was amazed or surprised . The feeling when the plane took off was a mixed bag. Murphy’s laws are a software engineer’s best’s friends. Finally, I had to jump off the plane, a strange one moment as well. I don’t remember my feelings then, it all seemed to happen so quickly.

The seconds after the jump from the plane was the most awesome thing I have ever experienced. Falling freely reaching speeds of 200 k per hour, adrenaline levels were at the peak. For those 30 seconds or so, I felt alive. The parachute was then opened and though I make it sound as totally unexciting, parachuting down to ground is by no means an unmemorable(or for that matter) scary experience.

I have little or no doubts that I will sky jump again.
