That looks like a ton of fun. I would love to try it but I am too chicken... Aren't you ever worried about your family? That's what keeps me from doing this crazy stuff... I am just not a thrill seeker I guess.
One of the world's most experienced paraglider pilots just died recently. He had a heart attack in his sleep and never woke up. Sometimes you have to ask yourself would you rather die charging the mad gunman saving the lives of others or die getting shot in the back while running away or hiding under a chair. Those with true grit realize that if you truely want to go out with a bang it will likely take a whole life of living to accomplish it. Yes I worry about my family, they will likely die in a car crash while I'm out flying.
I like the analogy of the mad gunman and you are correct. Statistically it's probably more dangerous to drive a car than to paraglide anyways. I have always wanted to be a race car driver... and should pursue that dream. By the way, I do not know you personally but I actually liked your commercials and always gave you the benefit of the doubt when I heard media reports about you. I liked your enthusiasm. I had a totally awesome computer once and was heartbroken to see your company be destroyed. What a shame to be treated that way after having contributed so much to the State and Cities.
