Even if someone would I doubt they could arrange it unless they had their own plane and 2 helpers crazy enough to agree to it, also don't new comers to chuting pass out on first jumps sometimes?

Are you allowed to jump out the plane in an intimate position with the guy with the parachute initially, or do you have to jump out then find him mid air and cling on?

I think that is whats meant.

To really jump out of a plane with nothing and then meet somebody with a chute.
Weeee, thats gotta be the sickest adrenaline rush ever.


Cmon, 100k... takers?

yeah, it would be a pain to arrange all that. Also I have no idea about the legal implications.

Sad,... yet another great prop bet plan thwarted by the worlds nittiness.

I'll do this.. I'll put up 50k to win 100k. I've never done anything remotely like this before... I'd want three atempts meaning i could go up in the plane twice and not jump but the third time I don't jump I would then forfeit the bet. Any takers?

I have a friend who is a pilot.. so would just need an experienced sky diver to jump with...

Any one who has the cash needs to take this bet. I will put my small but entire bankroll on this. I am an experienced skydiver with 3000+ jumps and have been a skydiving instuctor for over 13 years. I also have done several of these jumps (called Mr. Bills) both as the person holding on and one opening the parachute.The only stipulations need be that they freefall for at least 15 seconds before opening and that the have nothing to assist them to hold on such as a harness or clip.It cannot be done! The peson needs to wear a parachute themself or they will die. If this is done properly I am willing to shoot the freefall video of this bet and also may be able to find you someone to jump with the person. I will not do it because of the risk involved.

Would I be allowed to wear a parachute, but lose the bet if i open it?... Actually Id probs be ok with just not wearing one.
Also, I am assuming the guy wearing the parachute jumps first then after a few seconds I jump.. then I pray I can get hold of him and hold on till we land?.. sounds pretty scary but I would try it
The only thing I would be bothered about is having to freefall for atleast 15 seconds.. I think the bet is crazy enough without this stipulation
