To celebrate my two-year anniversary at Instructables, Eric W., Noah, Rachel, and I went to iFly to go indoor skydiving. Two vids are below. The lighting is terrible, but you get the idea. I go second in each video. At the end of the second vid, you can also see the instructor showing off what someone can do after a few hundred hours of experience.

I picked up the basics after about thirty seconds, stabilizing myself and even following the instructor around a bit. You’ll see him communicating with me via hand signals a couple times, though, telling me to make smaller, more controlled motions. Noah picked it up even faster.

You can also check out video from when I went actual skydiving with Logan.
