Sponsored Drop · 30 September 2010

It helps the people of Africa and in particular the people of Mali help themselves by providing ambulances and medical equipment and funding for medical facilities and staff. A Charity with a difference, all the overheads are covered by the trustees so every penny donated goes where it should.

Story

If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving is not for you.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm raising money for the Bamako Bampots by throwing myself out of a perfectly good working Aeroplane.

Sorry to spoil all your fun though as I will be wearing a parachute, however the type of Parachute and the type of jump depends on how much is raised. 

For £400 I will do the rather girly Tandem Skydive. Basically I will be a passenger while the qualified skydiver does all the work, I'm basically there as ballast.

For £500 I will do a static line jump. Less of a passenger then the tandom skydive, the parachute opens automatically, but I still have to steer it and land, giving a good risk of broken limbs, (no point doing something like this without risk).

For £600 I will do the Assisted Free Fall. This is the closest to a pure jump that an un-qualified lump can make. I have to get myself out of the plane, keep myself in check on the way down, (qualified skydivers will be along side me though just in case), open the chute myself. (for the gore seekers, this is the one with the highest chance of turning me into a one dimensional red stain on the ground), before landing, (hopefully), in one piece.

So, to see me do something stupid for entertainment purposes, give generously! :-)
