Wanted: 70-90 year old that has always wanted to Skydive

[awsmattl]

Hello, I filming a TV Pilot show in which I would like to find someone that has always wanted to Skydive but has never tried it. I am looking for a man or woman between the ages of 70-90 that would like to have the experience of a lifetime! I will pay for the experience in which you will jump in tandem (attached) to an experienced jump instructor. You will also receive a video tape of the experience! Having all your friends and family witness the jump would also be great.

I would also consider someone that may have jumped before in the military many years ago that has always wanted to do it again.

Time to have some fun!!

If this isn't for you, please pass this onto someone that may be interested. Thank you.

Oh dear. I would get half way down and forget why I was jumping (just why would I be doing this? I mean jumping out of a perfectly good airplane and all.) and forget to pull the thingy to bring me down slowly and you just know I would forget how I was supposed to land and break my cossacks. (sp?)

And yes I know there would be someone else with me, but at my age, and being that close to a man... Oh honey... I would totally forget EVERYTHING!!!!

Dearie, maybe you should look for someone a little younger who can remember things. I'm just picturing one of us going SPLAT!

HEY SWIMDAWG. HERE IS YOUR POST OF THE DAY!!

Village Girl...My dream is to sit on a lanai with a wonderful view and eat crackers and drink pop with you. Will you be my friend????

[cappyjon431]

What a great offer. Unfortunately I am only 50 and have jumped four times (I thought it might get me over my fear of heights, but it didn't) so I probably don't qualify, but if there is anyone out there who wants to give it a try, this is a great opportunity.

Did you mean "corset"? "Cossack" has something to do with Russian military from way back, I believe. :)

Actually dear, I was trying to say tailbone, but my mind started going on about copping a feel of that cute young diving instructor :MOJE_whot::MOJE_whot: and I wanted to impress him with my fancy words.

Wow! Awfully early......but here it is......the SPOTD Award!

and BTW the spelling is coccyx....and you'd hurt more than that, trust me!

Oh VG....don't do it......you can hardly remember your name these days. Not trying to get personal or anything. But if you do, please land in water so I can rescue you. I may join you and Gracie on the lanai........

I know that this experience is not for everyone! Just the ones that want a daring experience that will be remembered forever!

Please pass this on to your friends that may be interested.

The facility that we are going to use has hosted jumpers into their 90's before. They also told me that former Presidentail candidate (&senator) George Mcgovern jumped and he is in his late 80's.

I think it might have been "coccyx," and I have landed on mine a couple of times. I would rather injure a cossack.

KENNEBUNKPORT, Maine � Former President George H.W. Bush marked his 85th birthday on Friday the same way he did his 75th and 80th birthdays: He leaped from a plane and zoomed downward at more than 100 mph in freefall before parachuting safely to a spot near his oceanfront home.

Bush made the tandem jump from 10,500 feet with Sgt. 1st Class Mike Elliott of the Army's Golden Knights, who guided them to a gentle landing on the lawn of St. Ann's Church.

"It's a great, exhilarating feeling," he said after he was removed from his harness. "I don't feel a day over 84."

He said he enjoyed the jump so much that he planned to do it again when he turns 90.

When he was president, Bush was an avid jogger, speed golfer, fisherman and tennis player. He said he has slowed down since then, but he doesn't intend to stop moving.

He told reporters that he jumped Friday for two reasons: to experience the exhilaration of free-falling and to show that seniors can remain active and do fun things.

"Just because you're an old guy, you don't have to sit around drooling in the corner," Bush said. "Get out and do something. Get out and enjoy life."

Children on hand
All five of Bush's children, including former President George W. Bush, were there, along with 14 grandchildren, two brothers and a sister.

Elliott said he was "definitely nervous" because of Bush's age and the presence of his entire family.

"What we do is inherently dangerous, so there's always some risk, but we pride ourselves on safety and make sure everything goes as planned. And today it went without a hitch," he said.

Bush's first parachute jump came when his plane was shot down over the Pacific in 1944 during World War II. He bailed out at 1,500 feet after a bombing mission over ChiChi Jima. His two crewmates didn't make it.

In 1997, Bush fulfilled a wartime promise he made to himself that someday he'd jump from a plane for fun by hopping out over Yuma, Ariz., and he jumped again on his 75th birthday at his library in Texas.

Video: Free falling with the Golden Knights His days of solo parachuting ended at age 80 when bad weather forced him to scrap his plan to go alone. He made not one but two tandem jumps in Texas.

Seventh leap
The skydiving jump marked Bush's seventh parachute leap from an airplane. His last jump was in November 2007, also with Elliott, at the reopening of his presidential library at Texas A&M University. He made that jump unannounced after hip replacement surgery.

Joining Bush on Friday was anchor Robin Meade from HLN, the cable network formerly known as Headline News. Meade also made a tandem jump with the Golden Knights.

Nancy Brindle, who works at Patten's farm stand in Kennebunkport, said she's surprised at the number of local residents who are concerned about Bush's safety but she wasn't worried.

"It's so much fun to live in Kennebunkport and be part of the excitement," she said. "It's a pleasure to be part of it all. It far outweighs any inconveniences."

Former First Lady Barbara Bush doesn't object to her octogenarian husband's fascination with skydiving.

"She is fine with it, particularly now that he does tandem jumps. She has so much trust and faith in the Golden Knights that she's fine with it," said Jean Becker, Bush's chief of staff.

Dr. Tom Perls, director of the New England Centenarian Study, applauded Bush for serving as an example to others � especially seniors � to stay active.

"For Mr. Bush to have this attitude of, you know, carpe diem, really is spot on. Clearly age is not stopping him from doing something that he thinks is really fun, and thrilling," said Perls, a professor at Boston University. "Age, the number, should never stop somebody."

VG.....I don't care what they say....do not do it! :ohdear:

Bush's children were all there, which was wise, that way they didn't have to gather them up again in case there was a funeral.

Village Girl...DON'T DO IT. Maybe you can just do the holding on to the guy ON THE GROUND!!

Yikes. I get dizzy wearing high heeled shoes. To each his own...and what would this world be if we all liked the same things. They would only sell vanilla ice cream!

I am too young to qualify.

Heck, I'm still not thrilled when flying in a jet airplane let alone the thought of jumping out. :eek:

I did a tandem jump for my 50th birthday and wanted to do another a couple of years ago with my daughter but the people I called had a weight limit . i was only a few pounds over but have dropped my weight. So my question is ...is there a weight limit (I weigh 217) or any other limitation? Secondly what type of aircraft will be used...specifically how does one exit the plane? Third at what altitude will we jump? Fourth why do you want to video this event. I have a video of my first jump and so understand that aspect of it but why do you want to video it?

[awsmattl]

Keep that attitude even when you are 10 years older!!

Rubicon,

There is a weight limit and you are close depending on the jump instructor. The reason we are filming this as I described in my original post is for a TV pilot. The show will be focussed on someone older that has always wanted to do something daring like this.

I can't wait to tell my mother-in-law. She is 76 and went parasailing last year for the first time. She loves an adventure so ya never know. She also went swimming in underground caves for the first time last year. I so admire her and her spunk. I can't wait to hear if she would like to do this also. I always say when I die she should write a lovely eulogy for me. I think she'll live to 140!!

This kid comes on our forum and wants one of us to jump out of an airplane and we do all kinds of hands stands for him and show him our great sense of humor and he doesn't elaborate much at all about what, when, why and where and how. What kind of film, who will be the commentator, why is it being made, what is the distinct purpose, who will be the producer and more...? Tell us more Mr. Awsmatti..Inquiring minds want to know.

Is this marginalizing the original poster, or just grilling him..........

[angiefox10]

Yeah... If I were to do this... would I be a star????

I mean... I know I'm a legend in my own mind already....

[CarGuys]

Ruth and I would like to book two sessions for our X's. Parachutes for them will not be a needed option.

You can drop them off at any convient location. Dump, Lake, Tarmack, Sink Hole Gattor Swamp it dosen't matter.

[CarolSells]

Well, we all know you're a star all ready but as Gracie pointed out he hasn't told us what the actual show is going to be yet.

Could be:

Real Housewives of The Villages
Real Stories of the E.R.
American PickerUppers
Extreme Makeovers (they've run out of edgy ideas)
America's Next Drop Model

And, does it pay anything?

My son is with the 82nd Airborne and when I told him about this he thought it was a fantastic opportunity and was so excited that I was going to present it to his grandmother, however, she has no desire to do this. I can Not believe it. So sorry to report that. I was sure this would be a hoot for her and something she would " jump" at the chance to do (pun intended). Oh well, maybe she is holding out for something more exciting. I can't wait to see this show when it airs.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
As I said in my original post, the purpose of this is to give an older individual the chance to do something like that they they may have never done before but always wanted to do. This will be filmed by my crew and may be part of a pilot episode of a new series (network TBD). That is all I can share at this point unless you are seriously interested in taking part in this adventure.

This will be a really fun experience for someone! We have had a couple of people express interest and we will be talking to all interested by next week. It's not to late to put your hat in the ring..... Couples also welcome to jump together (each attached to an experienced jump instructor). The final details of where this will be filmed (what town) will be discussed with the interested candidates.

The facility that we are going to use has hosted jumpers into their 90's before. They also told me that former Presidentail candidate (&senator) George Mcgovern jumped and he is in his late 80's.

Didn't former President George H.W. Bush jump a few years ago? He is now 87, but he was probably 80 or early 80's at the time.
