Those of you who've ever done a skydive in their lives know: that moment when they open the airplane's door, you believe being part of a movie!
Everything about it seems completely unreal and illogical. I mean from a strictly rational point of view there is no reason to jump out of a plane. Your brain starts to send out adrenaline into every single cell of your body, and all kinds of surviving techniques are activated.
Your body screams from the inside: don't do it!!!
Still you ignore all these alerts... because you're hungry. Hungry to live on the edge of life, hungry to exceed your own limits and to literally broaden your horizon.
You're on the hook of life.
I love those types of extreme sports since they teach you that you're able to overcome any sort of fear. These moments demonstrate us that we're capable of much more than we actually dare to do.
These adventures also put us into place, they make us humble. We suddenly recognize that we're just tiny little beings that don't even come close to the power of nature. We're so unimportant in this infinite universe.
Still, we're the ones who decide what and when. We're in charge of making the very best of our lives, every single day.
Go out and live! Life is short :-)
Best, Marly -

That my friend was some incredible footage! Some of the most up close and personal I think I've ever seen involving sky diving. You seemed to have it together up there which is a feet in itself. Your instructor was great and did a super good job. He was kool! I had a buddy of mine who did the same as you but upon landing smashed his ankle so that was it for him. He never got back on the horse again but to each their own I say. What a great day this must have been for you! Happy and proud of and for you! Excellent!

It's so completely unreal that you can't even feel anything! It's hard to describe, but 13K feet is so high that you don't even notice that you're actually falling from the sky.

And I have a question that I thought maybe you could help me with since you use dtube quite a lot. It was my first time using dtube today, and I tried to add two videos to my post. It worked well, but I did not realize that those videos would also get posted to my steemit blog separately when I added them to dtube. There must be a way to add something to dtube without making a separate steemit post as well right? Sorry if I am asking a stupid question, I tried to google but I could not find any clear answer... Thanks in advance :)
EDIT: Oh, am I supposed to write the whole post on dtube?

This is definitely on my to do list.
I know what you mean by that fear you have to overcome, took a bit for me to get back on my board after a bad injury, but I'm so glad I did. There is something special about sports like this, they force you to be in the moment, like the best meditation teacher you ever met.
You got a new follower.

I was wowed at first when i first discovered that the word "impossible" could be split to "i-m-possible", it brings to mind that truly impossibility is but an illusion and that we are truly capable of remarkable feats.
In a program titled "FREAKS OF NATURE" on Discovery channel, one of the freaks, i think, did say " i believe we should battle the forces of nature, cuz only then do we feel alive!", i Paraphrased though.
And i believe we are seem as tiny beings in this enormous universe because we have only discovered a tiny fraction of what we are capable of!
Continue discovering ma'am!😉
