I done it last summer in Cali. I could have cried i was so scared.
I got to ride in a Helicopter, Skydive and go Jetsking all for $420. Plus you get a DVD of it all, Makes you look like a fucking film star.
Scariest part is standing at the edge of the plane and thinking 'Yep, im gonna die here probably'.
Other than that, Dont go after the fat bitch who screams and you hear her the whole way down.

Yeah did a sponsored tandom about 5 years ago, Needed to raise about £250ish iirc.
Best rush ever, seriously, as soon as I landed I wanted to go again! Such a mad feeling i'd do it again but involves alot of waiting around and stuff usually at a boring airfield with nothing to do!

Oh yes, and I would love to do it again.
It can be quite expensive, I got a special deal as my Dad has done 1599 jumps (exactly!) at the club so is a well known member. I got a video and pictures done. I'd post some but they're quite embarrassing. I was 16, had braces, had stupid goggles on, a stupid hat and a turquoise jumpsuit 
But I can't think of anything that could possibly give a bigger rush as you step out that plane onto 'nothing'.
I jumped from 12,000 feet which gave 45 seconds of freefall, and also because of it being my first jump, as I grew up on the airfield (had my 1st birthday there!) alot of the Staff linked up with me whilst in mid-air, aswell as my Dad. It was just immense and I will do it again at somepoint.
