Left chin visible so you'd know it was me. I look terrible in all the photos but idc.
It was literally some of the most fun I've ever had in my life. The 60 second drop before they pull the parachute feels like you're going to die. My brain has never had that much dopamine before. Might go again next weekend if there are any time slots, was that fun. I highly recommend.

Why jump with an instructor?
My favorite thing was that they offered an option of having a parachute with a slit in the back making it partially controllable, so I had tons of fun steering it and then turning against the wind right before landing and landing like a fricking feather!
The less favorite thing was that the instructor apparently miscounted how many people he put at each side of the plane, so he tried to throw me out, then changed his mind and pulled me back (later I realized that it was to not eject me over the forest), and having no experience I started worrying that maybe something went wrong and other guys' parachutes didn't open automatically because of something I had done.
