Hi, i'm not sure what he % is but it's well worth it, i did a skydive when i was 18 for charity and i loved it, you aren't likely to break anything, in fact once you land you'll want to back up and do it again Very Happy

re: skydive

Same as above. Did skydive for charity and loved it. One girl sprained her ankle out of the 8 of us but only slightly.If it is a reputable training school you should have no problems.

Not being funny, but when you jump from a plane and thing go wrong i would expect a little more than being in a bar with legs and arms in plaster. Usually pushing up daisies is more like it

Unless you are skydiving out of aplane that's not took off. Very Happy

It's not the jumping out of the plane or the skydiving you should worry about, it's the landing Wink
sorry about that
Good luck James

re: skydive

Good luck James. I did a bungey jump in NZ - that was bad enough for the fear factor - throw myself out of a place - no way!!! Hope it goes well.
