    Those guys are sick... Not a question whether they'll all die... Just a question of when...

      That is pretty cool, but it is something I'd never do.

            There's a commercial on TV with a guy who's 66 and does that. Just a variation on skydiving.

            Of course, jumping out of a perfectly good airplane isn't exactly a natural thing to do.

                  Way too cool

                  I am afraid I would look more like a C5A in one of those suits. And would have the same rate of sink without jet assistance.

                      You don't need a parachute to skydive, you only need a parachute to skydive twice.

                        ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!

                        I was thinking the same thing about myself if I ever had the guts to try that, but I was thinking a C130. (of myself)
