From The Vault

Posted on 26. Sep, 2008 by loswhit in Mid Afternoon Distraction

From Feb ‘06

I weighed 30 lbs more than I do now in the following video.


I was told I was too fat to go skydiving. The owner took me anyways.

Needless to say we fell fast.

    I was a parachute rigger in the Army from 94 to 98. I haven’t jumped since I got out and, man, do I miss the thrill.

    I went with a couple of friends up near Santa Barbara and one of them was just a couple pounds over the limit. He spent an hour or two walking around the parking lot smoking cigarettes and was able to go up.
