A good friend of mine who I used to work with at Texas Tech, Pavan Chinthapanti, recently had his first skydiving experience doing a tandem jump. Of course we live in the 21st century, so events like this can and are readily documented with digital video and shared with a global audience via websites like YouTube:
Way to go Pavan! Looks like the experience was quite exhilarating! 🙂
Pavan jumped with the Adventure Skydiving Company. They don’t list prices on their website, you have to call to find out about costs in your area.

Looks like you had a ball! Great music on the video. I am pleased that you enjoyed your skydive, skydiving is great fun and a very safe sport, once you have done once you will always want to do it again.
