Why do normies do this?
>>
Wow anon where's your sense of adventure... :/

it's about the life experience!... It's... cool... cause... you fall out of a plane and do nothing

but you can brag to your friends about it!
>>

Cause of le adrenaline junkie meme.
>>
>>29310403
its crazy as fuck

i did it once

tandem jump

They're animals.
They still need to feel danger and go to nature to feel like they're alive.
>>
>>29310403
If a normie asks you to go, just go with them anon, it'll be fun.
when you sabotage norman's parachute
>>
>>29310442
And you are not an animal, but what exactly?
>>
>>29310442
fuck you

-istp
>>
>>29310403
I've done 2 static line jumps. Totally awesome.
Then I run out of money and social skills.

I was 16. 7 years passed. Shit.

I'm planning to go back for an AFF course when I'm finally wealthy and healthy, but I guess that's gonna be in quite a while and I'm not sure I'll still be into it by then.

>stupid woman is such a pussy she can't dive on her own

women are such shit

I did skydiving once. My thought was:
Worst case scenario: I get to post something on my Facebook page.
Best case scenario: I die.
>>
>>29310403
Why do anything?
We get feelings for everything we do
Skydiving gives you an adrenaline rush, the feeling that you can fly e.t.c.
>>
>>29310485
>>29310491

I don't know. I'm more human than animal I guess. Those drives mean nothing to me. Cultivation says me more. And I don't mean in a fedora sense. I avoid nature mostly. Except for the desert, I hate forests and all that shit.
I value morality. I value city life more. I don't like to seek out unnecessary risks in nature because of some dorky adrenaline drive.
I love to read and I love to hang out at gatherings of other humans.
I don't need to literally and figuratively hang on the side of a cliff to feel like I'm alive. It doesn't really feel like a conquest for me when I do such things.
I feel more satisfied when I enrich myself when I visit other cultures and cities than when I escape death.

did you know that injuries exist?

Are you fucking retarded anon?

Normalfags HATE shit like skydiving. They hate anything exciting.

I tell them I do skydiving, parkour, and urban exploration and they lose all interest. I usually urge them to join me to have some fun, but they always decline. I even had one asshole call me tryhard for being into it.

They just want to do "socially acceptable" repetitive shit like going to the club. It's disgusting.
>>
>>29310614

Yes, because a vehicle isn't necessarily a car.
>>
>>29310403
The same reason they have that hormone therapy and feelfilms in brave new world: Getting a feeling of existential fear in a safe world.

The same reason why horror games and movies are popular in rich but not that much in poor countries.
>>
>>29310508
You can't just Strap on an parachute and jump out a plane, you need training and a license.
>>
>>29310620
You realize there's different kind of normalfaggots right? You have reddit normie tier interests.
>>
>>29310620
Thats not even true faggot
You were probably just sperging out
>>
Jumping is pretty fun though I had to do it for my job
>>
>>29310894
>y-you were probably doing [insert X wrong thing]

It's massively easy to just assume someone is doing something bad when they make a small gripe. In reality it's just intellectually lazy. Instead of talking about it you just push it aside like an asshole.

>>29310878
I know there are different types, but you'd have to have pretty shit luck to come across the worst types relentlessly like I do.
>>
>>29310403
I got dragged into doing this. I didnt want to do it, I knew it would be shit, I was scared to death m the way up and you know what happened? IT SUCKED FALLING OUT. It was absolute shit and when I hit the ground I basically called everyone a cunt, dropped my gear and stormed off like a little baby but honestly fuck them. It was like a nightmare. Im not glad I did, I got nothing out of it at all.
>>
>>29310933
Adrenaline rushes like that are NOT for everyone. You didn't do anything wrong.
>>
>>29310403
Drop on floor

I'd like to do it doesn't seem that scary to me though

Do people have sex while sky diving? Any skydiving porn?

Why do normies stick out their tongue when making videos on vacation?

>>29310403
Normies? This shit is strictly for the goyam.
>>
>>29311079
it's a hold over tradition from the 80s rock days. It caught on really hard. It's kinda how Japs put their fingers up for most photos. To you and me it'd seem obnoxious and cringeworthy seeing them do it constantly, but they are normalfags and do not think about it.
>>
>>29310931

Where do you even live? Miami or something?

Dead normies come to those who wait

Portland, Oregon

What about you bro?
>>
>>29311253
Portland? Could you burn someone's house down for me, anon?

>there will be normies whose chute and reserve chute tangle and fail to open, leading to their death

Feels good man!

I did it once. For me, it was about overcoming fear. I wanted to prove to myself that I could do something scary.

It was an amazing experience, and I don't regret it one bit.
>>
>>29310442
>>29310550
You're wrong.

Exactly because they do stuff like this makes them humans, and not animals.

All other animals relish the quiet and the boredom, and will do anything to get it.

Humans, on the other hand, will do anything not to be bored, even if it involves risking their lives for a simple adrenaline rush

Normies do it once or twice for the screaming and selfies.
People who actually get certified do it for the view and the challenge.

Sounds like a massive flock animal.
