TIFU by going indoor skydiving

A few months ago my mom decided to bring the family to IFly (a indoor skydiving area) and I was so excited.  My brother had went for his birthday one so I have learned from him and was jealous so now was my time to fly.  My brother, Dad and I went flying, my mom was too scared and I regret not staying with her.

Before we went to fly.  We watched the video and had changed, my only worry was the instructor touching me since I don’t like to be touched.  My group was with another small group I still remember while waiting for our turn, a 82 year old was finish flying and she was so happy so I knew this was going to be fun.  One in the waiting bench of the tube of death, I was last in line but as soon as I felt the wind though the door when it was my turn, I panicked.

I did not expect the wind to be so rough but what else should I have expected.  I got so Nervous that my legs did what they always do if I’m just a tiny bit scared, turn to noodles.  So as soon as I walked in, my legs were noodles and of course, that isn’t good if having straight legs is the most important thing of indoor skydiving.  After a little bit I learned the basics but was struggling not to grab onto the net at the bottom of the tube of death.

But when it came time to get out of the tube.  I panicked and ended up wrapping myself onto my instructor’s arm like that one wristband you get at a school book fair that you slap on to your wrist.  At that point I wasn’t scared of the instructor touching me.  I was so scared I just started crying even once I was safe and the guy controlling the wind was concerned and asked if I was okay (I lied and said yes).

While waiting for my 2nd turn since everyone went in twice, I was so scared and bawling my eyes out.  My dad was holding onto me while my brother went and the instructor said I didn’t have to go if I didn’t want to.  I ended up saying I still want to go but as soon as I felt the wind for a second time, I decided this was too much for me.

Basically I didn’t go a second time

I remember just feeling horrible and I just wanted to go home and cry.

So yeah, never going back in that tube of death ever again and I wish I never agreed to it

TL;DR
I went indoor skydiving and it was the scariest thing ever.
