Skydiving At West Point, Virginia

A tandem jump (attached to someone else) at West Point. For an additional fee you can have a camera man jump with you. The video takes about 1 hour after your dive, the entire jump takes about 5 minutes.

In case you were wondering, 3 million people went skydiving in 2004 and 21 died (19 of those people were diving outside of the supervision of a school). So, I guess your odds of survival are pretty good.

Those of you too scared to get the full experience should try indoor skydiving.

Questions? – Gladly answered in the comments :)
