I know exactly what I am doing...but I might die proving just the opposite

just a couple more....
hhmm... does that qualify me as narcisistic!?
or just happy I've become a skydiver 
this one is my favorite... perhaps because the sun, perhaps because my daughter was scared while I was diving and yet kept her focus on me through that little lens from the moment she saw me until I was safely down, or perhaps because my wrinkles don't show so much in this photo...

it feels surreal, and solidly confident,
it feels exciting, seriously intense concentration coupled with
moments of pure delight
-better then .. hhmm... how shall I say it...
'intimacy'
Better then the wind tunnel?
Absolutely!!!!
Better then the wind tunnel by 1000%
now it is sinking in....
that I have a question about A requirements...
but that's for another thread

lol Manifest...
lets hold back on the 'awesome'part...
but thanks for the compliment!
(and AGAIN sorry being uch an *ss on Sat.)
Here's the 'lewest' landing, thaanks to Dmitry
I thought to help Adam out a little and try to dry out some spots on the landing strip:)
(did that sound convincing enough )
It WAS SO MUCH FUN though to drag your butt across the water trap to get a complete shower effect on my face (not to mention I made we the last ofmy dry clothing well worth every droplet though)
