I jumped out a perfectly good (virtual) airplane this evening and went hurtling towards the "ground." Wee!!
iFly is an indoor skydiving experience thingy that uses a big strong wind tunnel to simulate falling through the sky. It was intense. And loads of fun. I managed a fair bit of stability and maintained a slow spiral the instructor set me on going up and down a bit in the process. All the defying gravity experience with a nice safety net to bounce off of at the bottom!
The stunts the instructors pulled were crazy. It looked like special effects that you would have thought were overblown...except that they were just doing this stuff right before our eyes. Flips, spirals, break dancing on air. Going up and down crazy fast. I have no idea how they have that much control when you'd think every little false move would have sent us spinning around the tunnel if it were really that sensitive...but wow.
