And just for the hell of it, this is me plummeting to my death. Yeah, you can't really see my face but I was kinda distracted, you know? Bravo, I couldn't ever do this grim. I hate the feeling of falling. /flirt grim

You don't really get that feeling except for when you first jump... once you reach terminal velocity (~120 MPH I think) there's just too much going on... adrenaline blowing up, wind is really loud, it's cold even in summer... it's sensory overload. And since you're so high up (check the pic... the clouds are UNDER us... lol) you have nothing to really gauge how fast you're falling. The ground doesn't appear to be getting any closer for awhile, so it's really just you and a TON of wind. The sensation is more like flying than falling actually. It's like a massive gust of wind is coming up from under you and just sort of holding you in place.
The only time you really get that 'stomach drop' feeling is when you pull the chute. Going from 120 MPH to 20-30 MPH in a split second is pretty jarring.

There's me before the actual jump, hanging outside of the plane. This was my third jump, but you can tell by looking at my eyes and lack of expression that I'm nervous as shit. I post this pic only so you can see that I have a normal face, because when you're falling it pulls all you skin up and you look freaking weird... such as: There's the money shot. AHHHHH!!!!! I usually don't show people this pic b/c it makes me look so weird with the wind contorting my face. But you can see that I'm just sorta like 'OMG WTF!!!111!one!!'
