To close off the dystopian 2020, my roommates and I decided to jump out of a plane :) Singing those papers, putting on all the gear, and waiting for our call definitely got all our nerves up. We were asked questions by the instructors that definitely made us question our decisions and while we knew this was (supposedly) safe, it's still a terrifying experience. Since I was sitting at the front of the plane with my tandem, we were the first ones to jump. We got to the edge and before I could even fully comprehend what was about to happen (or back out) my tandem forced me out with a backflip. The first few seconds of the fall was the most intense feeling I have ever experienced in my life. By the time we were completely horizontal, the scariest moment had passed and the gut feeling of falling ceased too. We could just enjoy the view of the magnificent Zephyrhills, Florida coming closer. Once the parachute deployed we coasted for about 7 min before we made a safe landing. I'm definitely going again :) Here are some extra photos: https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipOa6-bgHcvRb1XDe6V8yL2CTO1FuDmNHVep9G63tJRN5C4LTVtt2g0JO4RuN5_fSw?key=QjNGZzVHY2VZQ25xR0pLRmVXQUhvUmR2TUs5MkVn I know I made stupid hand movements in the air there was some miscommunication between me and my videographer and I am just as disappointed as the rest of yall.
