30 Thoughts That Go Through Your Head While Skydiving

Abby Seker

So, you have gone completely insane and decided that you are going to jump out of a plane 10,000 feet in the air. Here are some of the thoughts that might run in your head throughout the experience.

You walk into the facility..

What the hell am I doing here?
How did I get here? Oh yeah, my friend asked me if I wanted to go and I said yes.
Do they show this instructional video to scare people out of doing this?
This old guy with the long beard is really starting to freak me out.
There are a lot of things to initial on this paperwork…
I am currently signing my life away. Ok bye life.
Hey look they have free water - it’s the least they can do since I’m paying so much for this picture and video package
Photo ID.. do they think I’m trying to lie about my age or identity so I can skydive??
Who in their right mind would try to lie about that? Then again who in their right mind would jump out of a plane…
That airplane looks extremely small
How safe is this?
LOL the instructor doesn’t want to go with me because I’m wearing braids
They are going to whip the hell out of him hahaha
I’m sitting on the floor of a tiny airplane.. woah
Not sure if I can do this
Oh we’re actually going 10,000 feet up in the air now.. ok
This plane seems a little.. okay very unsteady
Wait, we’re only half way up right now?
That's a long way down.. What if my parachute doesn't open?
Stop asking me if I’m nervous, you’re making me more nervous
For real shut up I'm trying to keep myself calm
Seriously what the hell am I doing right now
Do I have to jump or can I come back down with the pilot?
Welp, no going back now
Holy crap I’m about to jump out of this thing?
HOLY SHIT
MY MIND IS COMPLETELY CLEAR AND I CAN’T STOP SMILING
The world is absolutely beautiful
Can we go again? Like right now?
Man, no words can explain this feeling.

You just jumped 10,000 feet out of a flying airplane. There are literally no words to explain the feeling, you really just have to take a leap of faith and experience it yourself. It is so worth it.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.

The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
