First-time skydivers share their experiences

It’s the day after my first jump! It’s kind of hard to think I actually did that. So grateful for my video!

"Its just you and the sky... and this guy behind you!"

I just skydived for the first time yesterday and it was the best thing ever. It was so scary yet liberating. The peace and bliss being in the sky, “flying”. It was quite a memorable experience!!!

I just skydived for the first time today, and I'm glad I did. It was amazing, and less scary than I thought it would be.

Respect to the guy who gave up the party lifestyle and made a positive change, I can relate 🙏👍

This video made me cry for some reason

I'm going again. It was incredible. I understood the addiction as soon as we exited the plane.

I have my first jump in 5 days. I’m doing it to get some excitement and to see the earth falling from 14,000 feet. The guy that mentioned he quit drinking and took up skydiving... that’s amazing! As an alcoholic I feel that these intense activities could help me find a better view on life and find something else to do besides dwell and be sad. I’m so excited!!!! I feel this will help me in so many ways.

I skydived for the first time yesterday, it's definitely not for everyone. The free-fall was absolutely terrifying for me, I found it hard to breath, I was absolutely freezing and at times I thought I could've passed out. I am afraid of heights, I have problems letting go of things as well as control issues due to being a passenger in 2 serious car accidents. The best thing for me to do was to put my faith and trust 100% into someone else's hands and try let go of everything. I'm so glad I did it and would recommend it for people as a therapy session but it was the exact opposite of fun for me. Hope this helps anyone wanting to try it out.

1 jump and im hooked. jumped from 18k and I cant wait to go again

Going this Sunday! I'm terrified. This video helps. :)👍👍

You picked a great DZ for your first jump! Van and Emiko are super rad! Love Flying V!

Went for first time yesterday. The build up is scarier than the actual jump.

Thank you so much for this, I truly needed this. My first jump is a two days from now

I was a bit worried that my heart would not make it in the freefall. My pulse must have been over 200 bpm. Other than that, probably the most amazing experience in my lifetime, and when the parachute opened, it was almost disappointing.

From the moment you jump out you are free it is all you think about after first time is going again no fear

My hands are sweating :O

such a fun to watch..... imagine doing this

Brilliant video

I’m going skydiving in 3 days! Super super excited
