Jumping???

Thrown perhaps. ):

I am sure that with in the next few weeks we can talk a couple of the VF people into jumping off it.

Now that would be a way of raising an awful lot of sponsorship ): ):

Could well be, I can get a name of a contact if someone wants to reach out to the powers that be over there. I won't be jumping, but I am more than happy to push a couple of people off the tower.

And someone will have to remind Paul that he has to use the wire system.

I'm looking forward to it, will do it as soon as I get there at the end of May.

I did this last week and was hugely disappointed. I'll not lie to you, when I stood on the edge of the ledge and peered over I was very nervous. I was given a countdown 3-2-1 GO. I paused and asked GO? before stepping off As soon as I stepped off it was as I feared: too controlled a descent. It felt too much like something was stopping me falling too fast and whilst that is true I was really hoping for more of a freefall feeling than I got. I've felt more of a rush/fall from rollercoasters and really hoped this would be better. I suppose I should get to the Macau tower and do their bungee (with guidewires) to get the thrill I want

I've never done a skydive or a bungee but if you have I suspect you'll not be very excited when you do this and for $100 + tax it's really not worth it at all.
