Is Skydiving an Irresponsible Thing for a Father to Do to?

[curling]

And while we project and ylifter answer that. Because after playing San Andreas makes me want to try that too. What about track racing on a sport bike(doing that this month too) ?

I am just wondering since they thought stunting on a sportbike was bad for a father to do too.

Track racing is more safe that stunting IMO. The track conditions are known, whereas street conditions change constantly. Plus, you don't have to worry about cagers on the track. As far as skydiving goes, it is very safe, especially for your first time. You will have to either go tandem or static line. Either way you can't really fuck it up. Unless the chute is packed wrong or something. I think one of the recent stats was somewhere in the range of 1 out of 70,000 jumpers will die due to accident. I think it is fun. I have a jumped several times and hope to be free-fall certified soon. Go for it.

to me, racing on a track with safety people around, a leather suit with padding and stuff, boots, and a good head gear is a lot smarter than doing stunts on a freeway where you might not get help fast if you need it and the people around you are unpredictable, and also didn't ask to be put in a situation with a stunt rider.
a skydiver also has safety equipment and i think the liklihood of death is a lot less than a motorcyclists doing stunts.

Absolutely not.

Skydiving is alot better than doing a 100 mph with your daughter on the back of your bike.

Jump. It is a blast. You do it with proper supervision, proper training, proper equipment, and you have a fun.

I wonder if a black person not employed by the military has ever intentionally jumped out of a perfectly good plane.

That's only because you've exceeded their weight limits, you fat.
