“Gather up as many good experiences as possible. It increases your chances of being a pleasant elderly person. Life is made up of moments. A reunion among old friends. A first date. A birthday party. Relish them because you will carry them with you forever.” -unknown author We are in the lucky position to help you create one of these moments.
“Just to say hi on my first anniversary as a skydiver. I’ll never forget the experience, and as Bo said, every time I feel bad I just watch the DVD and remember that if I could jump from an airplane there’s nothing I can’t do. You are always on my mind and I’m still grateful for the wonderful experience. ”
–Antonella Caponi, from Argentina!
-”Because a perfectly good airplane has yet to be invented.”
-”Because it’s on my list of things to do in this lifetime.”
-”Life is not the amount of breaths you take. It’s the moments that take your breath away.”
-”Why not?”
-”Because the door was open.”
-”Because it seemed like a good idea at the time.”
-”It’s something I’ve always wanted to do.”
-”Because it made my dreams of flight come true.”
-”It’s a purifying experience.”
-”Ships are safe in the harbor, but that’s not what they’re built for.”
-”It makes for a great New Year’s Resolution.”
-”I have a fear of heights.”
-”The day of my first jump was the best day of my life!”
-”Because it will rock your world!”
This question is as old as skydiving itself. At first, it was out of emergency; the guys who had to bail out of an airplane to save their lives realized it was more fun than flying was, thus it became a sport. Perhaps humans have the uncontrollable desire to step outside of their comfort zone and expand their boundaries. There might not be one answer to this question, but rather, each human has his/her own reasons and it doesn’t really matter why, as long as we are having a blast doing it!
If you didn’t have it in you already, you wouldn’t be reading this page.
Stop wondering why, just do it!
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
–Mark Twain
