I decided to brave the skies a few months back in April and do a 10,000 feet high skydive. I had always wanted to do one and when I heard that W.I.T were hosting a skydive in aid of charity I signed up straight away. We were given sponsorship cards to raise €450 for 4 chosen charitites, which proved easy enough as people were willing to support such a good cause. People kept asking me if I was nervous and I would always reply "No, I'm actually excited" but when it came down to it I was as nervous as hell!
As myself and my friend, Kellie arrived early we were first on the list. We didn't even have time to think about it as straight away we were shown how to land safely, what to do if anything went wrong and helped into our harness gear. It was all pretty frightening but our instructors were so calm and patient it made us relax...a bit! Once we got on the plane there was nothing we could do but try and enjoy the experience and that I did. It was the most incredible feeling in the world, words can't even describe it and I am delighted that I got the chance to experience it and raise money for such good causes.
Are you brave enough?
Until next time,
Liz X
