The girls (Laura, Karen, Rachel and Bev) went to Fraser Island on a two day tour. Left to unsupervised in Hervey Bay I decided the best thing to do would be to jump out of a plane. And indeed it was the best thing I have done in ages. An exhilarating experience. Freefall lasted one minute, during which time we (Garth the main diver I was strapped onto) plummeted from 14,000 feet to 4,000 feet. We accelerated to 200 feet per second, which is approximately 150 miles per hour. This is what it sounds like: whhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa oooooohhhhhhhh whhhhaaaaaaaa ooommfff [as the parachute opens].
