JUMP out of a plane? Or bungee jump?
:dizzy
MY 73 year old mom wants too, but I can't even wrap my brain around either one. She is probably going to skydive, because you have to take your teeth out to bungee jump:giggle
 
I've been bungy jumping before… twenty years ago. :) It was super fun! It was probably the "safest" way you could do it… over a giant air bubble instead of no safety net at all. That summer, I think we actually went twice and then once or twice again the next summer.

My 18 year old self did it with little hesitation, but now? Not a chance.
 
I would do both if I didn't have children. I would not want to cause them any undue duress! (actually if I would die, I don't want them to be left without a mother)
 
I don't know if I could anymore. When I was younger I probably would have. Funny enough I think I'd be more comfortable jumping out of a plane than bungee jumping. That's just weird!
 
#nope, although I do have a terrible fear of ketchup. So, I guess if my choice was sit at a table with a bottle of ketchup or jump out of an airplane.. I'd do the latter.

No way. I can barely fly the way it is, I can't imagine getting in a plane and then jumping back out. Heights are not happy time for me!
 
No Way Jose! A few years ago I would in a minute but something changed and I can't even look down past the 2nd floor anymore. I even watched Last Vegas with the scene of the roller coaster and just about tossed my cookies watching the movie! LOL
 
Not unless I was blind-folded and pushed!!!! (Heights make me jittery!!)
 
It's something I've always wanted to do.
But I don't like heights all too much.

If I ever get back to Vegas, I would love to do the indoor skydiving. That seems like a safer alternative.
 
I totally want to go skydiving!!! It's on my bucketlist...I'm hoping to go in a few years when we go to New Zealand...so excited!!!!
 
Heck No!!!! Im don't do heights. Once, maybe twice, I climbed up on the roof of my house, to help hubby with something. I was okay going up. But coming back down. Nope!! I was stuck on the roof for like over a hour, maybe more. But It took Hubby forever to help me down. I was in full panic mode. So I wouldn't jump from a plane or bungy thingy.


But if shes will to do,...I say go for it :)
 
Nope. Not me! My sister and sister-in-law talk about doing this and I tell them I'll wait for them down below or take good care of their children if needed!
 
you ladies so make me smile, from fear of ketchup to bucket list to jump...wow wow wow
and I have never heard of indoor skydiving, it made me almost think I would do it!
 
nope. can barely climb to the top of a lighthouse. your mom is dare devil thrill seeker ... wanting to do that at 73! how awesome!
 
I used to want to jump out of a plane, but since becoming a mom, I lost all of that kind of adventure. My cousin lost her hubby a few months ago when he jumped out of a plane. He was a big wig in the military & jumped tons of times, but just this once something bad happened. So sad.
