Skydiving has always been top on my bucket list. It has been exactly a year since I jumped out of a plane and I am strongly considering doing it again soon.
1. Nothing will ever seem as scary again
Once you are riding in a tiny plane up 10,000 feet and then are told to jump, nothing will seem scary again. Now if I am hesitant to do things, I always tell myself "you jumped out of a plane, you got this."
2. Get epic pics
Do it for the gram, but maybe hide it from gram because she will call you crazy. The pictures from the jump are breathtaking and would definitely make you seem like a badass. They also take a video of the jump so you can relive it again and again once safely on the ground.
3. Face a fear
Whether it is the fear of planes, heights, takings risks, or the entire thing, conquering the jump would be a segue to start facing any fear head on.
4. Gain a new perspective
There is nothing more calming, and no I am not being sarcastic, then swinging your legs over to see the clouds and sky passing below you. It is a beautiful scene and can only be viewed right before a jump.
5. Bragging Rights
Ever been asked to disclose a "fun fact" about yourself? Well, if you go skydiving, you will never have to struggle to find something interesting to say again.
6. Priceless Rush
I have never experienced something as freeing and exhilarating as jumping out of a plane. It happens so quickly, but also feels like you are up there forever. It is incomparable to any other thrill-seeking activity.
7. Take a risk
I was never big into taking risks, even calculated ones. After skydiving, I realized how important it is to push yourself to do things that are out of your comfort zone.
8. Honestly, because why not
Skydiving is a fun activity with many safe and trusted facilities all over the country and world. If you are even thinking about it a litter, go do it!
