I skydived from 15,000 feet a couple years ago.Never understood skydiving or bungee jumping. But more power to em. Sure there’s a huge rush but I don’t think it’s worth it
The person who packed his chute should be held liable.
This sounds like something people say to manufacture a silver lining
Edit: just googled it, a free fall from 20,000 feet is only 35 seconds.

A sky dive would be a bit longer as you spread out to create some resistance, but from the altitudes where you’re supposed to release the parachute, there’s only seconds before you’d hit the ground. Heart attacks typically take several minutes to kill. Hard to believe he’d have enough time to panic and actually be killed by the heart attack before hitting the ground.
Basically typed out what I was too lazy to. That shyt is a stupid urban myth.This sounds like something people say to manufacture a silver lining

Why so sassy?Ol I just googled it headass
that's just a wivestaleHe died before he hit asphalt.
fukkin around with that white boy shytI skydived from 15,000 feet a couple years ago.
Its cold as shyt up that high, and really hard to breathe unless you tilt your head back.
You are falling so fast that you really dont get a good sense of adrenaline rush.
Its hard to describe the feeling, but I got more of an adrenaline rush on roller coasters dropping from 250 feet.
The harness also is tight on you and gave me the worst wedgie of my life.
It was an awful experience.
The only enjoyable part was the view once my instructor deployed the parachute since this was at the beach.
He also didnt tell me that you can do flips with the parachute deployed, so we suddenly started spinning and for 5 seconds I thought I was about to die until I realized he was pulling the control handles.
2/10 rating and a waste of $200.
I would never do it again, and would never recommend it to anyone.
When I got back to the office, I told a family waiting in line how shytty it was, and a woman convinced her husband not to go.
Not sure why he was doing it anyway with a wife and kids.
The manager then told me I wasnt welcome back.
I told him that wouldnt be a problem.
Apparently, the odds of chute failure is 1:1000. Dude had 6k jumps. Rolled the dice one too many times. RIP.
Lol @ "...and die..." like there could be an alternate ending
