Skydivers: where are you?

[Snake]

You can't die Skydiving if you're not suicidal (just avoid cliff base jumping and proximity wingsuit), there's way too many safeguards in place.

Nothing can happen to you while you're in the air, that's the beauty.

There's 2 ways to get into Skydiving : AFF and Static Line.
AFF's fast but really expensive (1k+), Static Line's slow but pretty cheap (from 0 to a one or two hundreds I'd say).

Then it's just 30-50$ per jump depending on where you jump (and the price of the gear rental).

Meh, static line sounds boring to be frank.

That's what I started with and yea, it can be boring. But in the ends it still is the cheapest way to do it, and every penny counts

Crazy as I'm a tall guy and I'm always trying to conquer my fear of heights. But it always ends up coming back so I'm hoping skydiving will get rid of it forever.

When you tall and scared

What the fuck does being a tall guy have anything to do with fear of heights unless you're like a couple of 100m tall...

I took this off online

"The natural fear of falling (not to be confused with acrophobia which is an irrational fear of height or vertigo the symptom of acrophobia) has posture control as one of it's reason. People with bad balances tend to be afraid of height as they kind of believe they will "slip". Such people rely heavily on visual cues so railings and barriers can be a huge relief for them.
Tall people and especially men (broad shoulders and tiny hips are not the best for balance) have a higher centre of gravity. Combine that with some posture problems, it's not surprising that they have the exaggerated fear of falling."

I'm not saying I have bad posture, I'm normal, but I am afraid I will slip and fell. Taller people do tend to have fear of heights rather than shorter people.

Well I don't think flying a plane over NYC would be such a great idea, unless you're done with your life

I need 100 jumps to be able to jump with a camera where I live (France) due to regulations.
(+ I don't really have money to spend on a GoPro, I'd rather spend that money in jumps )

Fear of heights and fear of falling are 2 completely different things...
