Video: Big Angry Trev goes Skydiving!

Well, I did it, I skydived.. er… I skydove… um… I jumped out of a plane!

‘Whooo-hooo!’

Along with my friend Brendan, we took the plunge in Picton NSW.  T’was a beautiful day for it and we were in good spirits with much joking around as they took us through some very basic training and fitted us with harnesses which made me thankful that I already had all the kids I want.

 

When the plane took off, I got a bit nervous.  When the door opened, I got a bit petrified!  And as you will see in the video, those first few seconds out of the plane gave my face the ability to convey horror in a way it had never been capable of before.

But after those initial few seconds, the euphoria took over.  It was amazing!  It is kinda silly to think I was white-knuckling it when in a plane with a seatbelt, yet totally exhilarated when plummeting towards the ground from over 4 kilometres in the air at over 200kph!  The freefall was definitely the highlight and an incredible experience that I cannot recommend highly enough – everyone should try it at least once in their lives!

Way too soon for my liking the chute was pulled and freefall ended, leaving me to hang like a slab of meat off the front of my instructor as for the next few minutes we floated towards the ground.  It was so serene and silent up there, I could have happily stayed in the air all day.  Fear was non-existent, calm bliss was in abundance.

 

After we landed, rather than thanking the powers that be and kissing the ground, all I could think was ‘I wanna go again!’
