Today, I went on my first ever assisted skydive. I fainted after we jumped, and only came to as we touched the ground. FML

Not cut out for this

Today, I took my girlfriend skydiving for her birthday. I insisted on joining her to make it a memory for us both, despite my fear of heights. I passed out twice mid-freefall and had to be saved by the instructor both times. FML

Today, my friend took me tandem skydiving. When it was time to jump, he began crying, said he'd cut our parachute cords, then said "Goodbye, cruel world!" and pushed me off the plane with him strapped to my back. I pissed myself and cried like a bitch. He thinks his "prank" was hilarious. FML

Today, my boyfriend and I were out cliff jumping, when for the first time, he told me he loved me. I panicked and pushed him over the edge and into the water. He's now in hospital. FML

Sick moves, bro

Today, we were hanging around the pool with a couple of friends and a crush of mine. Thinking I would be able to impress her with a well-performed dive off the diving board, I went up and attempted my best dive. I slipped as I jumped, hitting my head on the board. I had to be saved by the lifeguard. FML

High flying old bird

Today, while on vacation with my family, I went parasailing. Just as I was about to take off, the wind picked up and I got blown off course. I ended up crashing into a boat and had to be rescued by the coastguard. FML

Today, at the pool, I decided to face my fears and go off the high dive. I slipped off the edge and did a barrel roll into the pool while screaming like a little girl. FML

Definitely a good thing you had assisted. Your ass would have been flattened on the pavement if not.

Just throwing this out there.. I'm a airborne soldier and jumping out of planes is something I do at least once a month and you really didn't miss anything.

She or someone else is sort of paying for her to have the experience, so she did miss out. It's money wasted. But still, OP, you're really lucky that that was assisted. Probably shouldn't take a chance and go alone.

That's okay, some people just can't handle the altitude or the weird G-force stuff. And please, tell me you have video of this.

Today, my dad, who never supported us growing up, and who calls once a month to collect his monthly living expenses, gave me an ultimatum: either buy him a plane ticket so that he can come live with me forever (he's a raging alcoholic) OR to send him $4,500 US Dollars (which where he lives is someone's 6 month salary).
