I haven't logged jumps in over a year, but have video footage of every single one.. over a 1,000 for sure. Before I got into this biz, I was a freefly instructor and free fall cameraman for 3 years traveling around and living on drop zones. The hardest decision I had to make all day long was whether I was going surfing (cloudy) or freeflying (sunny).
I also have a record for having the lowest amount of jumps to ever pass an atmosphere dolphine test which involves a ball master throwing a tennis ball full of lead (about 2lbs) out of the plane (falls at about 175mph) and having the student fly out after it, catch it in the air, release it, doing a cartwheel (y-axis transition), fly back to it and catch it again, release, 360 (x-axis transition), fly back to it anc catch it again all before 7,000 ft. To this day, only about 250 people have passed this test.
People jump first because they want the adrenoline and overall experience. They come back again and again and again because they want to fly.
It's the shit.. no lie.. do it.. live it.. it will change who you are.
