I think parachuting is a very dangerous sport extreme. it is one of the most exciting experiences . A lot of people want to do it and they fun is incredible.
Yes, my dad said as well - jumping out of a perfectly good airplane... the best answer. But a lot of people think it is very thrilling and safe when you practice, and especially when you are harnessed together with your instructor. Never have had the hankering for falling on purpose.... :)
