Many years ago, prior to tandem jumps, I went parachuting at a jump school outside Washington, DC. I loved it so much that I jumped 4 more times and received my ticket to do freefall. Back then, it was relatively inexpensive. $30 for the chute rental to 4000 feet, $2 for each additional 500'.
Girlfriend at the time found out where I was going on those weekends and said, it's either me or parachuting. I should have gone parachuting.
There is a place in Miami that is a converted wind-tunnel that simulates freefall conditions in a 'tower' that would be fun to try.
Hope everyone has a good Thursday.
