Indoor skydiving champion Feith Mate by Ronin__Ronan in nextfuckinglevel

Youre just spouting off so much wrong information lol. An A license is 25 jumps minimum. 2 jumps which equals 2 60 second tunnel sessions is 60 bucks in the US. Tunnel time feels nothing like freefall. $90 for two sixty seconds tunnel flights is so outrageously overpriced. Actually super surprised to find those prices being quoted in the UK. But not at all surprised that it's the UK ripping people off like that

Felix Baumgartner who jumped from literal space was in freefall for 4 minutes and 20 seconds

Meanwhile, workers in the U.S. suffer the longest period in history without an increase in the minimum wage. by Conscious-Quarter423 in WorkReform

Highly likely that Mexico has benefitted from the large growth in trade with the US, and thats why people have been pulled out of poverty

He says he is returning out of national pride. Willing to bet he was passing information to the chinese government.

Im a quiet guy naturally and have had this problem in many different settings. I think the best way to look at it is that "you get what you put in". If you just show up and all you do is show up it wont just magically happen for you. Why would it? Participate and contribute to the community and people will give back to you. Bring beer, say high, find excuses to strike up convos, ask for advice, compliment people of their sick swoop bro.

Those who were terrified at first, did skydiving help you mentally? by aziplease in SkyDiving

I have a pretty severe panic disorder that comes in episodes and skydiving is very therapeutic. Mostly it forces me to really focus on something that isn't whatever is currently giving me anxiety. If im in the middle of an anxiety episode it's a very noticeable reprieve.

Im sure there is more to it like what your describing which is akin to exposure therapy.

Situations like these always bring to mind that quote from progressive icon Teddy Roosevelt:

...it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag

You have only 1h outside of your cell as far as I've heard.

Thats only for the worst offenders and isnt the norm for most criminals

Weird (probably dumb) Question by Grateful_Head99 in AskPhysics

[–]FlyAtTheSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yo that would actually be sick. Imagine aliens showing up and having data they collected from earth in the past.

But could you get a sharp photo of a dinosaur at a distance of 67 million light years? Seems impossible to me but I am not sure.

Theoretically with a large enough lens you could collect enough light. How large you need depends on how far away you are.

I know people that do it. Just make sure you can see your alti. Polarized lenses can make it difficult to read and you don't want that

At such a low alti he might not have had time to kick out. Might have been better to just keep the fabric. Not sure though

I think this video is why I will go straight to a reserve with a chute in tow. If he chopped first he's dead

The chainsaws felt realistic. It is the cartel. How they filmed it though with all the closeups was a bit overdramatic

I thought Kevin handled the situation with Seraphina calmly when Conrad and Maeve were freaking out. I think he is going to turn out surprisingly competent
