virgin-burner 1 #2 March 29, 2014 that is pretty funny actually.. well, you know, not that he hurt himself, but the poster and so on.. wishing him a speedy recovery n'all; and that he gets his million likes! “Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.

Krip 2 #5 March 29, 2014 Matteew'S boss does have a point since he is self employed. Maybe the wife will allow him to jump again if he gets a Million Dollar insurance policy that covers: disability, liability, death. Marriage is all about love and compromise. Good luck.

DocPop 1 #10 March 30, 2014 I may be a bit behind the times on Social Media and all that crap, but how is getting a million likes from people that have never met you a rational decision making metric for whether to consider skydiving? This sounds like it's all about personal publicity and if that's the case then you want SoFPiDaRF."The ground does not care who you are.

jumpgump 0 #12 March 30, 2014 za_skydiverWifey made the sign because he mentioned skydiving again. I dont think he has a chance in hell, but hey, thought id help im as much as i can. Edit: grammar Yeah, I'd be a little concerned if my wife placed the value of my life at 1,000,000 "likes" on FB. The current exchange rate for FB likes in the United States is probably the same in Australia. FB 1,000,000 = $0 It took me four months to get my wife's blessings and approval to get back in the sky again after I had a small tear to my left shoulder rotator cuff from an AFF jump. I think anything more serious (such as your mate) than that would have gotten me banned for life by the wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

airtwardo 7 #14 March 30, 2014 AlsoTim I love being single so much right now. Ya just gotta find the right one...they're out there.When you want/try to take away something they love, from the one person you're closest to...chances are it's not a 50-50 relationship ~ that can suck. Sure there is always room for compromise, but closin' the book totally on your partners dream usually doesn't end well. Wife & I always have tried to support & assist each other to follow our dreams...even IF ya don't understand it.~when our kids came along we had a long discussion, I'd quit B.A.S.E. and motorcycles & she'd stop flying high performance experimental aircraft upside down 10 feet off the runway. . . until the kids were gone. -kids r gone now ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doug_Davis 0 #17 March 31, 2014 AlsoTim I love being single so much right now. I figure his wife is just smarter than he is. She's probably thinking, well hell if he cant figure out at a high enough and safe enough altitude how not to hit a parked stationary helicopter when landing, maybe he needs to take up bowling! She's just looking out for the guy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
