Here's the long awaited footage of my giant leap from a perfectly good aircraft!

The fateful day July 3rd marked the day I jumped from a plane. The good folks at Vacationland Skydiving escorted me nearly two miles into the sky, and gracefully brought me back to earth at top speeds of 130 MPH.

Skydiving was an incredible experience. It was certainly the craziest thing I've done! I've never really had any issue with heights but I'll admit when I swung my feet out of the plane and looked down...it was breathtaking.

My favorite part was the free-fall. The feeling of falling that fast, from that altitude really gets the adrenaline pumping. The day I jumped was picture perfect! If was a beautiful view to fall into. Then before you know it the canopy is open and you're gliding around the sky.

If you're interested in the sport, and want to take your first leap, I highly recommend the professionals at Vacationland Skydiving!
