A day at the Drop Zone

Some snapshots from the video file of Me, Brian, Lance, and Phil doing a "Tube" jump. We had 2 videographers. If I get some of the stills I'll post those. These are all from one jump, I had trouble "snapshoting" good stills from the video. More to come some day when i get $$$ for photographer, but I like taking pictures more than being in them. Enjoy!!

This looks like a lot of fun.... I've always wanted to go skydiving, but no one i know will go with me. They say its TOO dangerous. I say it's safer than sometimes driving a car. Thanks for sharing theses photos.
