Here's a video of Jake skydiving yesterday. This is the company he works for as a jump pilot:

Wait.....Jake flies the plane for the skydivers. Jake is shown skydiving from the plane that he flies for the skydivers. Who is flying the plane

In all seriousness. Thanks for sharing! Looks like a blast

Dude, under no circumstance would I ever jump out of a perfectly good airplane. Props for taking the leap!

Wow awesome! Totally not for me LOL

Always wanted to do this. Wish I would have done it before I fell 20ft and broke my hip. Now I would be too scared of the landing to do it. Congrats Jake.

Congratulations that is a good time fun job,

That’s awesome Jake. I don’t know about you but for me it is the most peaceful serene feeling.
Congratulations

Best,

Awesome video! Brings back memories!

It that stage of life where we get to be jealous of our kids. I hope it was a gentle Gentile landing at the end.....

Looks like a lot of fun, although I'd never do it

What a cool job. Get to log plenty of air time too. Nice.

Hi!

Jake, whatever you do: do not let the jumpers drag you to the dark side. Stay a pilot

It's funny that you say that because he does come across a bit like that in the vid but there's no chance of that happening. Jake is one of those PITA pilots that wants everything to be by the book, by the letter. He got that from his mother

[MaxZ]

I only said it because I've had jumpers try the same with me! They get to know you quite a bit when you've flown 2500 lifts for them, and still try that. Skydivers are the snowboarders/surfers equivalent of the air
