skydivehigh 0 #1 June 30, 2002 I thought this was worth sharing.... We were looking for something "fun" on Friday morning to do.....We had a big inflatable "foster's" lager alligator just hanging out in the packing hanger. (yea, we stole it from my bar in a drunk'in stupor). So we organize a 5 way with 3 cameras. The plan was for two jumpers to hold the gator like an aff student and one more to dock once stable (stable? yea right!).I was one of the jumpers to hold the gator through the exit. On a side note, the gator had a big inflatable beer in it's mouth. Upon exit, the beer goes flying out of the gators mouth and my bud losses his his grips. WOW!! It flips me over and starts spining (not too fast). I'm holding on tight and thinking "someone dock and get this stable",spin,spin,spin. My bro docks and gets a huge smile and Yahooo from me.What a rush......then my other bro docks on us and we get about 2,000 ft of laughs . We break off at 5,000 and land intact. 10 min later the beer lands(softly) after 13,000 ft ... right near the landing area, great spot by the pilot! It was soooo much fun I have a decent # of jumps , but this one will always stand out as one of the most fun ever. Later that night, while dealing with idiot drunk ground-hogs at my bar, my mind would drift back to the morning gator jump and I would just smile and laugh. I would love to hear about any of ya'lls inflatable expeirences..... Blue skies Bob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
