I exit by crying and throwing up and the dude coming in there to get me.

The first one. That's the most elegant one!

Another way is to just die🤣

Man Falls from the Sky because of a poorly attached Parachute

The first one looked like he was magnito

Backwards is the most impressive imo!

I would break so many bones in this thing

Forwards

A skydiving tunnel, also known as a vertical wind tunnel, is a large chamber that uses fans to create an upward wind that simulates the sensation of free fall. The wind moves at speeds of up to 300 km/h, which is similar to the terminal velocity of a falling human body.

What is the History of Skydiving Tunnels? | Q&A The history of skydiving tunnels began in the late 19th century with horizontal wind tunnels used for aerodynamic research. The first vertical wind tunnel was constructed in 1940 at NASA Langley for testing aircraft spins and parachutes. Human flight in these tunnels started in 1964 when Jack Tiffany flew at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. The first commercial wind tunnel for human flight was built in 1978 in Canada by Jean St-Germain, aimed at providing a safe environment for experiencing freefall. The 1990s marked significant advancements with SkyVenture filing patents for modern tunnel designs. These designs featured wall-to-wall airflow, improving the flying experience by reducing turbulence. Over the years, technology evolved, leading to more powerful and safer tunnels, transforming indoor skydiving into a popular sport and training tool for skydivers worldwide. Today, vertical wind tunnels are recognized for offering a safe and controlled environment for the thrill of flight. #Skydiving #IndoorSkydiving | 🪂🌬
