I am going SKY DIVING!!!

Just can't wait for THE DAY. The anxiety... the fear... the thrill... whatever you can think of are surely making my stomache more twisted than ever!

It still a couple of weeks away. I have not done many thrilling and adventurous activities in my life... but this one sure tops and I don't think I will do something more thrilling than this... imagine... you are in a small airplane... safety jackets tied... the plane going high... to make you fall down... it stops at a height close to 4000m (come on... thats half the mount everest!!!)... and the door opens... and you have to jump!!! Whoa... what an experience it will be! All "what if..." thoughts will come to mind I believe... what if the parachute malfunctions... what if I am not able to land properly... and stuff like that... the instructor told you that you will reach a max speed of close to 200 km an hour!!! Even imagining this makes my head spin...

But whatever... it sure is gonna be crazy fun... and I just just can't wait.

It all came down as a weird idea to a friend when we were talking of bungee jumping. And he was like forget bungee mate... let's straight go for the kill... searched and hit the bulls eye easliy. Very close to the place I live (just a couple of hours far)... there is a group that helps you do this crazy thing! And here we are... all done... just waiting for the time to come...

The most weird part about this whole thing is that they shoot a video also... and for that purpose... a professional jumps facing you... with a camera tied to his head!! Crazy aint it! I surely will put up the video on youtube... keep checking my favourite videos on orkut.
Enough.. will write more now after the experience... for now.. I am just in the just-can't-wait-no-more state of mind... but there is no option really... coz after the wait... they just say...


Get... set... FLY!!! :-)
