Who's been??? How much is it...I heard it's pretty expensive??? How many jumps you gotta take with the guy strapped on your back before you can do it all by yourself??

I paid $100 canadian to jump without a guy strapped on my back. However there was a tether that pulled the parachute open automatically after I jumped out of the plane. After something like 10 jumps you can go on your own. In canada at least.

Yeah space diving is a bit more dificult. if you are 1/10e50 of an inch off you'll miss the orbit. :)

I could NOT do that, not by myself. I'd like to be strapped to some hot skydiving chick to make sure I don't fuck up, though.

I've been on a solo jump as well, the most thrilling experience of my life. I highly recommend it!!!
My jump was outside of Las Vegas and was roughly $300 bucks US. I went with some other people, otherwise I think I might have chickened out. You have to take a lengthy class and sign your life away just in case. I myself think it's safer than tandem jumping, which i would never do. =0)

I'll be too focused on holding on to her and perverted fondling to worry about soiling my pants.

I don't think it costs much if you do a jump for charity. I've heard of local charities doing such things! I'd never do it myself - just in case the parachute didn't open!!

i paid $160. i jumped out of a plane 10,000 feet in the air in june. you don't actually jump though. you neel in the door opening then the plane tips and you fall out. its fucking wild. i did it for my 21st birthday. you gotta try it if you havn't done it yet. an experienced guy is on your back the whole time so you don't have to worry about anything. its the best adrenaline rush you can get. its just scary when that door opens and the fucking wind is blowing in and your just looking down at the earth hopeing you'll make it there in on peice.
the first mile down was a freefall, that was 30 seconds. fucking fast but you can't even tell. then parachute part took a couple minutes. thats awsome. its so beutiful up there i wanted to never come down.
