Snaggletooth Posted August 28, 2011 Share #13 Posted August 28, 2011 Done the hot air balloon thing. A parachute jump would make more sense to me. You know they don't issue parachutes on a balloon ride? Seems like a good idea to me. I'm with Gary though..... 285 and if the label don't say it's rated to handle a jeep I think I'll pass. I don't think they would want claw marks on the side of the plane where I was hanging on. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaggletooth Posted August 28, 2011 Share #14 Posted August 28, 2011 Oh ye of little faith...! You do ride a motorcycle...don't you ? I do.....but do you wear a parachute while riding your motorcylce? I didn't think so. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryana7769 Posted August 28, 2011 Share #15 Posted August 28, 2011 You really wanna leave dangerously...take a ride on a Chinook helicopter WITHOUT a parachute. This is of course after the briefing that when asked about all the coffee cans with oil in them sitting around inside the helicopter. The pilot tells you that is to catch all the hydrolic fluid leaking from the system. Be worried if it stops coming out!! :rotf::rotf: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuzzyRSTD Posted August 28, 2011 Share #19 Posted August 28, 2011 I do.....but do you wear a parachute while riding your motorcylce? I didn't think so. Mike Now that is a good idea Snaggletooth. :rotf:We could give the free rides down the road at a pre-determined speed from the jumper. The jumper could have on the parachute and then stand and pull the cord whenever they wish. SERIOUSLY; A good idea for some though Tom. My wife would do it in a New York minute. She wants to power glide with someone to, tandem. Fuzzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flb_78 Posted August 28, 2011 Share #20 Posted August 28, 2011 Whats the weight limit? Sort of wanted to do this, but I am near 270, bone dry. Gary http://www.skydiveorange.com/Tandem/FAQ.aspx This company's normal limit is 220lbs, but will go to 285 for a nominal fee. hmm...285? I'd only have to lose 140lbs in the next year.
