Steve TrugliaVia Uncooped : stuntman Steve Truglia prepares for a 120,000’ skydive attempt. To put that height in perspective, only the Space Shuttle flies higher. It’s a long way up.

wow, I’ve got 40 jumps in myself from up to 15,000 feet so I’ve got some perspective on this.

Incredible.

My goal is to do a HALO jump some day, from 30,000 feet

Nice one Rob - wouldn’t mind trying that myself one day. What are the requirements for a HALO jump, in terms of experience? Will the 40 jumps help at all, or is it a completely different skillset?
