Are you serious? Spike through the balls or jump out of a plane with a professional, a parachute, and a backup parachute? I'll choose the latter every time.

You would.
I've got a cousin who's jumped over 1000 times. He used to be an instructor but I'm not sure if he does any more. Now I think he just shoots video mid-air, he's got one of those fancy helmet cam set-ups. If I can get my weight down I'm going to have him take me on a tandem jump one of these days.
I've always wanted to but just haven't - for no real good reason.
I'll have to rectify that.
My wife'd pass out.
At least your video didn't have Danger Zone in the background like a friend of mine.
I've never really been tempted to go sky diving. Nothing against it though. I'm the type of person that stares out of the window of a plane the entire time I'm on it. I kind of get lost when I'm that high, so no telling what it would be like to fucking fall from it.
Unpretentious.
Seeing that video made me happy. Looks like a really awesome time, and I want to do it now.
Anyone want to fill me in on how much something like that costs? I don't even have a ballpark estimate.
I think when I started tandem jumps are somewhere like 150 bucks for 2.
