Yep, whilst I know the 'jet-pac' is a little out of my reach, I know the
wingsuit is achievable :-)

I'd love to see a video of you and the missus trying them!

I'd love to make a duo wingsuit jump, but unfortunately she's got to the
point where she wants to keep her feet on the ground.


*But* she's given me the OK to get a few more jumps in before I retire
from the sport.

I figger a couple hundred should do it ;-)

Nahhh, 1st and 2nd timers are so tightly clenched *nothing* comes out!!
Until of course they're under canopy, then it's usually spewers. Seems the
other orifices stay firmly closed ;-)

The funny thing is, I'm **** scared of heights, and I hate flying. Until I
get a rig on, that is :-)
I still don't like planes, which is probably why I can't wait to get out
of the damn things.

<lol> Believe it or not, that all makes sense to me!

But honestly, I can't hardly stand to jump off of even a high dive board
into a pool. <sigh>

I just hate the sensation of falling.

I can't even go near a window inside a high rise (as a visitor)!! But I've
walked along the edge of the Bank of America and Arco buildings (in LA)
prior to jumping off them ;-)

It's hard to believe, but you actually don't have *any* sensation of
falling when you skydive.

The only time you get any falling sensation is jumping from a balloon, a
helicopter, or doing BASE. And then, it's not really noticable anyway.

Jumping from a plane, you don't just exit and fall straight down, you are
actually still travelling in the same direction, and at the same speed as
the plane, till gravity slowly takes hold and you transition to straight
down :-)
Then it's just like being in a wind tunnel.

IIRC, the formula was 10seconds for the first 1,000' and then 5secs for
every other 1,000'.

Indeed! <lol>

I understand what you mean about the concept of "pucker factor".
But sheer terror tends to make one lose control of "waste control".

I've often heard of the saying "I was so scared I **** myself" but I've
never actually seen anyone (not that I want to!!) do it. I've heard about
people who've shat themselves *after* they've had the scare and have
relaxed a bit, but never during.


But I've heard about, and seen, plenty of 'sharts' ;-)


(That's where you **** yourself trying to fart :-)


Ewwwwwww, this is a disgusting subject!! I can stand blood and gore, but I
can't stand crap!! And you'll know when someone has shat themselves in my
AO, because you'll see me dry-heaving all over the place!!

<giggles> Part of what I do for a living involves running tests on that
stuff. But fortunately, there are gloves and biohazard hoods!

And somebody has to do it. <sigh> I've had outpatients thank me for
dealing with it a couple of times over the years. Nurses tend to be a
bit gleeful over sending that stuff down to us thru the pneumatic tube
system. ;-)

I'll drop the subject now and will resist the temptation to once again
post the link to that damned disgusting website where sick morons post
pix of said items.... <lol>

But it's actually on topic as that is where all food ends up.

And after 23 years as a lab tech, I'm somewhat used to it.

I don't think I will *ever* get used to it..... apart from my own.

Back when I had to change babies nappies (diapers), the older kids would piss
themselves laughing at me because I had a towel wrapped around my nose/mouth,
divers goggles on, an apron, and almost elbow length heavy duty rubber
gloves......... and I would still be on my hands and knees dry-heaving my
guts up!!

But yes, I've heard of the 'rate my poo' site, a friend showed it to me a
couple years back...... I have never gone back to see it again.

Hey, it's a living.
There is a running joke:

You know you are a lab tech when a stool smells like a paycheck".

Fortunately, modern biohazard hoods make that part of the chore not
necessary! A fact I'm rather grateful for!

You may enjoy this Youtube, and no, it's not gross, promise!
Just a vid of dads attempting to change babies, and having the same
reaction. ;-) It's funny as hell.

OMG I haven't laughed that hard in a while! I totally lost it when
the dad put powder on the baby's behind and she/he pooted a puff of
powder into the air. The rest was just too too funny.

<laughs> the human condition is always a good source of humor!
And I don't mind people having issues and me I being part of it.

It's amusing to me that women seem to have a greater tolerance for human
reality than men do. Likely why my field is heavily female dominated.
<lol!> It's about 90% female.

Not a bad idea. <g> I've posted the link a few times, but have only
ever visited it ONCE. It's a bit much, even for me.

And I have a warped sense of humor. ;-D
