patsylabrador Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 I hope it went well & that he enjoyed it. Hope it wasn't too cloudy. I think I would enjoy the floating down but not sure if I could jump. Brilliant! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raina Posted June 11, 2011 Author Share Posted June 11, 2011 Thanks everyone. Just to let you all know, Connor landed safely. They were supposed to jump at 1pm but he couldn't till about 6:45 as it's been raining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenNutter Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Phew! Waited to hear everything was Ok before sharing that I broke my back in 12 places when my parachute did not open completely on my first jump, and I landed on the runway like the proverbial splodge of strawberry jam. Complete miracle that I wasn't either killed or paralysed (guess my gaurdian angels were on patrol that day). Can't say I recommend doing anything potentially dangerous to raise money for charity, as the nurse that wheeled me into Xray commented "You raise £200 for charity and it takes the NHS £2000 to put you back together again." Bit tactless at the time, but she had a point. Hats off to him though, it takes some guts. Relieved all went well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
