"Dare to Live" - Skydiving Motivational Video (2014)

[@janrosier5454]

“It’s funny that I feel more at home in the sky than on earth.” How true for skydivers!

[@jimferris6460]

“This is my favorite view......Earth...from above.” “I never get tired of admiring the cloud formation.” “Dare to Live.” Three statements. Three truths. Three things every skydiver experiences. Superb presentation.

Gee, thanks Jim for your comments! :)

It's even better when not surrounded by a capsule (plane), just one with the air & gravity.

[@luiscardona9608]

I literally watch this video at least once a day.

[@johannesbergforsmedia]

ha! that's awesome, I think.

[@luiscardona9608]

I literally watch this video everyday

[@johannesbergforsmedia]

That's epic dude :) very warming

[@luiscardona9608]

@@johannesbergforsmedia its a truly inspirational way to look at skydiving. I only have 17 jumps but this video makes me feel like I can fly like you guys one day.

[@johannesbergforsmedia]

@@luiscardona9608 no doubt that you can, my friend!

I just did my first tandam jump today in Wisconsin and it was the best feeling I've ever had. The first 10 seconds were terrifying but after I got me shit together it was hands down the best thing I've ever done with my life. The view, the community, the feeling after I landed. Honestly I want more. I want to see different parts of the world that way. I know I have alot to learn, but I've never wanted to experience something like that over and over again so much in my life. That one experience today made me appreciate my place here and I'm thankful I just went with it 🤘🤘🤘

[@johannesbergforsmedia]

Thanks for sharing man! Good on you :) Go for it, go slow.

Indeed! Aurel Marquet, something like 5 years ago.

[@andycopland3179]

Great video. It makes me miss the sky in a bitter-sweet way.

[@johannesbergforsmedia]

@@andycopland3179 Hope you get the chance to get back soon mate.

[@luiscardona9608]

This video will never get old, I keep watching it, especially now that I can't jump because of cold weather. Do you have any advice on turns?

[@johannesbergforsmedia]

:) Thanks mate! What turns?

[@luiscardona9608]

I had an out off control spin the first time doing turns for my aff

[@johannesbergforsmedia]

@@luiscardona9608 Hi mate! Do a little bit of tunnel time, even if it's just 15 min. That way you can train turns in a controlled environment. If it's not possible, remember to take a heading - look at a solid point on the horizon.

[@shockwave6416]

Loved my tandem jump a few years ago. Just trying to get the balls to go back for solo.

[@mathyldejean-jacques5478]

How do they float out the plane like that without the parachute opened?

[@luiscardona9608]

Any advice you can give me as a new jumper? I turned into a propeller on my 3rd aff jump doing turns. I went back right after that, but it did scare the s#$t out of me.

[@meetingmountains522]

If you're struggling with the freefall /bodyflying part: go to the wind tunnel and train. If you're struggling with the canopy part: ground handle. Go very slow and enjoy the process.

[@carliecowley7251]

Anyone know what song this is?

[@johannesbergforsmedia]

Ki:Theory - Foot Falls

[@petesmith9472]

I just don’t know how people can do this without “reaching” for the ground….like kicking and scrambling

[@johannesbergforsmedia]

95% of every jump is like that, I just cut it out for the edit.

[@carla_del_ponte]

you dont have that sensation of falling... that reflex is only activated when you're about to hit something

[@xefecktgaming2024]

Can I do this as a career

[@johannesbergforsmedia]

Yep!

[@carliecowley7251]

What can you do besides being a tandem instructor?

[@johannesbergforsmedia]
