peek 21 #1 August 7, 2013 I could have sworn that I first saw this commercial over 2 years ago, and commented on it here, but who knows. I was channel surfing and came upon a commercial where Dad and the kids are doing numerous "dangerous" things, and Dad keeps telling the kids, "Don't tell Mom". The last scene is a tandem skydive landing in the distance, and then it shows a closeup of the instructor, (Mom) taking her helmet off and releasing her long head of hair, and telling her (fairly young) son, (who is in a jumpsuit too and implied to be the passenger), "Don't tell Dad." Not a bad commercial, but no wonder people think kids can skydive. Anyone remember when this first came out or who did the filming or skydiving, and where?

grue 1 #2 August 7, 2013 peek Not a bad commercial, but no wonder people think kids can skydive. Well, they can… USPA dictates 16yo for tandems, but not every DZ is USPA-affiliated. Mike Mullins' kids start AFF at like 11 I think. Here in Australia, APF allows tandems as young as 12.cavete terrae. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wolfriverjoe 1,523 #5 August 7, 2013 It showed up here last fall. No discussion on who did it. But the commercial only shows a generic landing. The actors are already on the ground when the scene cuts to them. http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=4381244;search_string=Don't%20tell%20mom;#4381244"There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."
