Being in contact with Terra Firma again the ride was over.

What no re-rides?

That was awesome! The freedom, sensation and adrenaline rush of leaving a perfectly good plane and plummeting 14,500 feet to the ground is something that I'd suggest to anyone. It was such a good time every nice day since then I have found myself looking up in the sky and thinking "Today would be a good day to jump". I am going to do it again and the next time I want to bring a bunch of you with me as the more the merrier.

High as a kite on adrenaline...yep!

So was skydiving better than coasters? No but it sure as heck is one of those experiences that you will remember in detail for the rest of your life. The rest of the day seemed to go by in slow speed as the thought went through my head again and again was of falling through the sky.

So what do you do after jumping out of a plane? I gave my wife a hug and a kiss as she had to deal with having an anxiety attack over her husband jumping out of a plane and then we headed into the Chicagoland Skydiving Center's very own restaurant and bar for a couple of adult beverages. Oh a free beer came with our skydive so it would be wrong to pass that up. Then Kevin and I partook in a Car Bomb which is the tastiest drink out there. I think he's a little more experienced at chugging one than myself as he was done in a second while I was still chugging away.

Now normally with a Car Bomb and a beer in me I feel it but with all the adrenaline still surging through my system I didn't feel a thing. One of the jumpers said it is best to wait an hour before drinking otherwise you won't feel it like happened to me. Oh the food at the Flight Deck Bar & Grill is great and both Bond and I highly suggest the Chocolate Cheesecake.

My time at the Chicagoland Skydiving Center was amazing and I can't wait to go back and jump again. If you want to jump keep an eye on Groupon as they do offer some pretty good deals on a tandem jump every once in a while. When you go for the first time make sure you get photos and video of it and when you jump ask for Mike and make sure to tell them at the desk that Negative-G sent you.

Looking outside I have to say that today would be a good day to jump.
