My brother-in-law’s birthday’s gift was a skydive jump! I missed the opportunity in May in Dubai because of heavy winds, and I thought it would be a great opportunity to do it there, in Central France. That was my first time.In a little town called Ambert, the instructor was very friendly and professional, I did not have the chance for any fear or stress.
Embarkment:
About 15 minutes flight to go 3000m above ground level:
Another skydiver was jumping with me, taking pictures and video:
This is when you feel the adrenaline: a huge acceleration and a bit of a flip:
Then pure pleasure for 40 seconds, we are falling at 200km/hour.
At about 1500m, the chute opens. In less than 3 seconds, we go from 200km/h to 15km/h. Then 4 minutes of landscape appreciation:
The weather was perfect, not a cloud. We could see up to 400km away! A great experience, I don’t regret it… For information, I paid 280euros for the jump + 120euros for the movie and photos.
