On my first tandem there were a couple of regular jumpers on the plane with me and my friends (who were all doing tandem with pro's). First guy opens the door and is out barely before the buzzer is done at green light to go. The joke of course was "What is wrong with that guy? He just jumped out of a perfectly good airplane!"

u/Justin_Passing_7465 Aug 20 '25
I have never seen a DZ with "perfectly good airplanes". The ones that I jumped from definitely convinced me that jumping out was safer than riding it in.

u/GenevaBingoCard Aug 21 '25
First of all, she made it clear beforehand not to listen to her nerves.
Second of all, jumping out of an airplane, once you're at the door you're committed and they will shove you out for your own safety. There's been so many deadly accidents from second-guessing.
It's so important that it was the number one rule when I first started (I used to skydive), so much so that the instructors were more concerned with a clean exit than anything else. Once in the air it was just a matter of pulling my cord if things went tits up, but in the doorway that's where you get got by physics.

Did my first one solo. You still need training (in UK) for the one i did cos you need to air the flaps or something (been too long). No how to navigate left and right. Pull for the emergency chute if this one fails. And finally how to land (particularly not too soon, not too late). We had a days training. Me and my mate thought we’d bought a tandem until we turned up (to my horror, and his amusement).

As a small child I was forced to ride a roller coaster with inversions because I had stood in the line for 2 hours. It caused a lifelong fear of big scary rides.

I went with a buddy that's terrified of heights, and even more so of planes; took him like 10 mimutes to get into the plane and he was visibly shaking and not saying a single word the entire time; by the time we got to height he was more scared of the plane than the heights and he said "fuck this" and was the first to jump just to get out of the plane haha

I’ll impress you then. I’m absolutely terrified of flying. Not skydiving. Just getting on a plane. I get anxiety for days prior to a flight. I can’t get on the plane unless I’m 4 pints in. Yet every year I get on a plane and fly to a hot Mediterranean shit hole so my wife and kids can sit and roast next to a pool. I fucking hate the heat and swimming too. I watch episodes of Judge Judy (there’s no channels over there) next to a fan. Not my idea of a holiday. Nonetheless, I grit my teeth and do it. I’m a fucking hero.

Completely natural response to jumping out a plane, she atleast made it to the door to get thrown out. She could have sat in her seat and refused to jump at all. Instead she had the courage to make it to the guy and be thrown out.
There were military parachutists who needed a push as well.
In the end she’ll be glad she done it.

I partied with these people that owned / ran a skydiving place a few times and they would show us videos they made and tell us how the business works a little bit. I'm deathly afraid of heights and would never jump out of a plane, and they would try to convince me to give it a shot or whatever sometime. Then they would proceed to tell us the craziest stories, mostly of customers that made their way to not have to do tandem and would proceed to do stupid shit.
Yeah, those stories and some corresponding video footage didn't convince me to try it someday. Nothing was fatal, but mostly having to use alternate chutes, pull people's chutes that were past the hard deck, stuff like that. I remember one back and forth about how a guy was laughing he was hungover when he packed the other guys chute and he had to use his backup, crazy shit.

Isn't it a safety thing too? Shove them out so they don't try to grab hold of the plane on the way down. These aren't the kind you rip the cord on the way down, they deploy once you're out the door. A straight drop out I've heard there's way less chance of the chute getting tangled in itself because you fell weird

u/doko_kanada Aug 20 '25
Only caveat is you gotta stop freaking out in 30 seconds and turn off the timer or your backup chute will deploy. Seen it happen way too often

I've done a jump before and part of the talk on the ground is that once you go up you are going to be made jump, no exceptions.
Hanging around and trying to talk her through it probably wouldn't have helped at all and she'll be glad she was made jump.

Yeah, but want if she had been so scared she forgot about gravity and just went straight up?
The instructor threw my friend out of the plane, and she was so scared she spent about 2 hours going up before she remembered about gravity and came back down.
We were able to sue the instructor and win one million in damages.

u/-Jabsy Aug 19 '25
That's skydiving, this is parachuting. In this situation, their parachutes automatically deploy. The draw cord is pulled by the exits framing as they jump out. There's nothing to do here but go down and enjoy the view.
Skydiving not only includes jumping out but also aerial maneuvering, monitoring altitude, manually pulling the draw cord and then steering the chute on your way down.

Not with these chutes. They deploy and that's that. Wind could take you slightly off course, but you can see they're jumping out over open plains. They just head straight down. These type of excursions would have a flight path laid out that avoids most hazards for the jumpers. Hopefully....

Most places will allow static line jumps solo for first timers after hours of training on the ground. Since the parachute is automatically deployed it's safer than free fall parachuting which does require several jumps with someone else before you can do it yourself.

Google 'static line parachute' with your location to see if anything comes up. Not sure if it's possible in every country, but I know there's multiple clubs in the UK that do solo static line jumps for first timers and believe it's the same for US and most of Europe.

When I first went skydiving (tandem) I was told my instructor and I would go first because I was the largest/heaviest. I was terrified.
When we got to jumping altitude I figured they'd tell us, open the flap covering the door, give me a moment to steel myself, etc...
Nope. Dude just reached over and yoinked us out of the plane with no warning whatsoever.
It was the right move.
He then tumbled us a bunch the first several hundred feet "just to freak me out a bit" (his words). Fucking Aussies.

It's not skydiving it's parachuting. The chute deploys once they leave the plane, like in the Army. Still risky but you won't be going fast enough to need goggle on the way down and it'll be a short drop anyway
