    The thing with the Sky Jump is, is that it is a controlled jump, and  its not like skydiving with a freefall. For my bday last year we went skydiving (I am terrified of heights) to try to overcome my fear, but nope, it was incredible, the most serene feeling of my life, but the sky jump I would never do. I think because its a controlled jump I would just be disappointed. Which is what I have heard from people that have skydived before doing it.

    Really...bummer but then I am kind of an adrenalin junkie so I guess if I am fore warned that it isn't the same (which I wouldn't expect it to be) then I can't be disappointed.

    Thought about doing it but I'm going ziplining instead.

    I've yet to try sky diving so I figured this would be a good first step :-)

    My FI wanted to do it before we just jumped out of an airplane, but we didnt get to. I was ok with it, I think he prob would have had more fun sky diving if we had.
