haha, yeah no kidding, talk about pressure, although technically, how do you screw something like that up? the only thing you could screw up is the landing, which wouldnt really be your concern....
but really, jokes aside, i really do think that guy in the picture is really brave. like someone said, if you look at other people, they're trying hard to stay upright, like they still havent accepted the fact that they have no control over their fate anymore. This guy just let himself go, hes accepted that he has no control over whether he lives or dies, and just free-falls, he alsmot looks relaxed. I think it's really brave for people to give up control like that, because its something i dont think i could ever do. I have a hard time accepting the fact that sh*t happens and I cant do anything about it.
