one thing I don't understand. I know it's an adrenalin rush but as a former PJ, the planes and helicopters were more than enough for me as an adrenalin rush when it comes to parachuting. I guess if there is a need for me to base jump, I would do it but as a method of getting that adrenalin rush, I have no desire to do it and won't go out of my way to do it...
