jtval 0 #27 January 8, 2002 The only reason I jumped in those conditions was because two whuffo friends were doing their first tandems on that jump and I wanted to be on the load with them. Otherwise, hell no I wouldnt' have jumped, I had all most NO forward drive and the only reason I did was because I sort of did a semi-hook turn into the wind to try to get some speed for my landing. Still almost came straight down and decided that would be my only jump that day.=========================================you shoulda saved some of that back pressure after 15 beers you shoulda have no problem getting back to the dzHave fun, LIVE FREE, SkydiveJT Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phil 0 #29 January 8, 2002 You have to release the pressure before exit otherwise you are not completely free. Anyway better to share a good fart with friends than bad breath.I guess the expression “blue ones” gets a new meaning here…Phil Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sebazz1 2 #35 January 8, 2002 You know the thing thats really gnarly and excuse me for saying this, but.........When someone farts and farts to the point where you're getting sick you gotta realize your inhaling little microscopic particles of crap. And you don't have to worry so much about the person thats rotting inside you gotta worry about yourself and what just went up your nose. Gnarly!Keep it in till exit.............

airann 1 #36 January 9, 2002 I think some persons go to extreme measures to seek out "altitude food" to further their ledgenary skill of producing putrid caustic fumes while others are in a captive environment. I say... cover a small bottle of Ozium in velcro, stick it on the ceiling of the aircraft. In case of emergency 2 squirts. For normal mexican food variety fumes just 1 squirt should do it.Heh, ...if you ever smell a field of spring flowers or dozens of roses - That was ME.http://www.AirAnn.comUgly Girl #6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flyingferret 0 #39 January 9, 2002 I just read this whole thread and gotta say thanks for keeping me awake at work, I was trying not to laugh out loud. Now, I cannot even believe this question is here. Everyone knows about farts...they are just normal in the plane. If you think they are not try holding one on the way to altitude and see how your stomach feels.And I can vouch for David, we have both been threatened to be kicked out, but David is such a cornfed fast falling guy, he would be hard to force out. And I am not sure what you are all complaining about. I jump with David and other guys in a 182. Man, that is much more confined. But we have rating systems for hangtime and stench. It is just part of the indoctrination into skydiving tradition, just like round jumps, and beer. And working jumpers, like TMs and camera flyers are the worst, well wait....there is David too...and me I guess. Malachi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FallRate 0 #40 January 9, 2002 Nothing is as bad as the fuming terror brought on by a night of drinking Corona with Lime. The lime adds a special effervescence that will, in most cases, make you question why you are wearing a rig when all you want to do is die!FallRate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phil 0 #45 January 11, 2002 mhm, I read that they want to develop a new stinkbomb to be used for riots, maybe we could contribute to the R&D and take them onto the plain to give them an idea. I mean with Fed funds, we would probably get the ride for free as we're serving as assistant. That would also mean, that the beer and everything else that we would consume the night before would be free as this is part of the research.So to anybody out there who has some good leads to the defense industry - get the word out that we're ready to help out. blue onesPhil Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
endorphinman 0 #46 January 11, 2002 I have to admit it does stink and with the door closed on the way up the smell only seems to linger, everyone does it and is at fault. My advice is to get used to it, cause unless skydivers change their diet,(beer and fast food typically served at or around DZs) nothing will change. If it's your own it doesn't smell so bad it seems or you don't mind as much. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick 0 #47 January 11, 2002 I'm sure that it's better to have people fart than the alternative. Just imagine the mess if they held the gas in until the pressure built up and they're arse explodes!!!!Nick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
