The old ones are sometimes still the best. And that is definitely the case with this classic extreme experience. The experience of leaping from a plane at a height of 10,000 - 12,000ft is one that will you will never, ever forget. The nerve tingling plane ride is all part of the experience and then your time has come! Securely strapped to your instructor you exit the plane and dive through an exhilarating and extraordinary 30 seconds of free-fall reaching speeds of approximately 120 miles per hour before, at about 5,000ft, your parachute is deployed and you can enjoy the gentle float back to earth.
Experience Content
This experience starts with a 30 minute ground briefing which covers the equipment, exiting the aircraft, freefall and landing. After this you'll be taken up in the plane and securely harnessed to an instructor who will take care of everything allowing you to check out the view, feel the rush of air and savour the immense adrenaline rush of freefall without the responsibility. There are professional cameramen available to capture the moment. A video and 35mm stills are available for you to remember your day with, ask for details when you arrive.
