I went skydiving from 13,000 feet above beautiful Golden in BC! I jumped out of an airplane and soared downward through the clouds. It was surreal looking up to see the plane getting smaller and then disappear with the Rocky Mountains all around me. After 45 seconds of free fall, the parachute was deployed, allowing me to perform turns and appreciate the views.
Since it was my first time, this was a tandem skydive with an instructor attached. He guided me the entire time, including how to prepare for landing on the ground safely.
I hope you enjoy the photos and the video I edited together (also on YouTube).
