SkyFall & Plus_minus
SkyFall SkyFall
Just hit the edge again—skydiving at 10,000 feet—and I’m still buzzing from the rush. Got me thinking about the numbers behind freefall. Ever run the math on the risk?

I’ve pulled the data up before. Roughly a one in two‑hundred‑thousand chance of death per jump, and about a one in ten‑thousand chance of a serious injury. If you multiply that by the number of jumps you’ve done, you get a personal risk figure that’s still low but not zero. It’s funny how the math feels almost comforting, but life always has that little wiggle room that no equation can capture.

Yeah, numbers are great, but they’re just a blink on the big screen. I live for the feeling, not the stats. If the math keeps my adrenaline from going to zero, that’s a bonus. Keep riding, but maybe throw in a safety check for good measure.
