Awesome! I even got to control the parachute for a few minutes. That thing is amazingly controllable and easy to fly. I would recommend this to ANYONE who has the cojones!
I even got a video, I'll transfer it to MPEG once I find the time.

Sheeeeiiit!!! If that was the thrill of you life try doing it carrying ammo and weapons and with dudes shootin' at you and bombs goin' off!
On the other side, do it with a snowboard, while tossing frisbees, balsa wood planes...
Just hope to not hit a piece of floating ice while in freefall. At 120mph that sumbitch can HURT!
