SKYDIVING:Lifetime experience

I am a adventure loving person. And skydiving was on the top of my list.Although, i was initially scared looking at the risk involved but then i started going through articles,survey about the risk and safety about skydiving. After reading a lot ,i realized that it is one of the safest adventure sport. Only 0.5 percent accidental cases till 2019.This gave me assurance to go ahead for this...

Tandem Jump:40,000 Rupees

 Its really costly just for few mins of fun and especially for a person like me who has mere income but i was determined to do it once in lifetime. So,i started small saving every month. After an year i was able to save enough to do it.

Time came with a question where to do this adventurous sports.

Skydiving in India:

1. Mysore – Karnataka

2. Deesa – Gujarat

3. Pondicherry – Tamil Nadu

4. Aamby Valley – Maharashtra

5. Dhana – Madhya Pradesh

6. Hyderabad – Telangana

7. Aligarh – Uttar Pradesh

Best places in the world for skydiving:

1. Santa Barbara, California

2. Denarau Island, Fiji

3. Dubai, UAE

4. Fox glacier, New Zealand

5. Interlaken, Switzerland

6. Victoria Falls, South Africa

7. Mount Everest, Nepal

8. Outerspace

Looking at list i was confused.That time ,i was staying in Pune ,Maharashtra but i wanted to do it abroad thinking it would be cheaper and would do a foreign trip as well.The cost of skydiving is pretty same everywhere.So,finally end up deciding to do it in India.

Just before i was planing to book it in Aamby valley as it was near by to Pune. I shifted to Bangalore with my new Job.

Atlast, i booked it in Mysuru With "Skyrider".I could not sleep the night before skydiving because of the excitement for Skydiving. I did not tell anyone about this as my family would have never allowed me to take this much risk just for enjoyment.

Finally,the day has arrived,i boarded train for Mysuru. Entire travel time went thinking about the jump.I took a rickshaw to Mysuru Airport after reaching railways station.

There,i saw a 6.5 feet muscular man named Raka who was supposed to at the driver seat for my Tandem jump.Looking at him,i was bit relaxed i am in safe hands as he had completed more than around 250 jumps.

We were taken in small plane to a height of around 6000 ft.All the instructions provided to me vanished from my mind till i reached at that height.I was bit scared to jump but i had to do it.Finally, Raka jumped out of the place,i tried to shout with elation but air completely filled my mouth.That 40 secs of free fall followed by landing with para-glide was an amazing experience which cannot be expressed in words.

After collecting video of the jump,i shared with my friends and family.Although,friends were excited about jump,i got lot of scolding from my family :P.

If you are a adventure loving,you must do it once in life time but make sure you inform atleast one person about this because it involves risk even though only 0.5 percent....
