snowslider 0 #1 October 5, 2006 I'm sure most of you have seen this but for those who haven't. I went through a few emotions watching this, mad, scared, shocked... Anyone have any movies that are similar to this? http://www.skydivingmovies.com/ver2/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=4799 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelel01 1 #2 October 5, 2006 Ok, I actually hadn't seen that one. I think my first level 7 actually looked similar to it, though. That video was SCA-RY, though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have seen lots of AFF jumps that look like that. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snowslider 0 #4 October 5, 2006 I got mad because I was scared for the girl and affraid for the AFFI. I didn't think she should have been allowed to jump, I looked a bit harder and found her level four and she had a pretty descent arch. I guess she just forgot some things when SNAFU occured?! http://www.skydivingmovies.com/ver2/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=4835 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I say good job to the AFFI for stopping the spin, getting her flipped over and getting a canopy over her head. QuoteWatching people spin on their backs is a hobby of yours, isn't it. Not just watching people spin, have you ever seen me fly on my back?? Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
