They now have these wind tunnels where you can do simulated skydiving for a thrill, if you are rich.

We went on a work expedition, intended to build emotional unity amongst an emotionally disconnected group. (That part would be worth any amount of $$$$$ if it is successful.)

You only get to go in the tunnel for 60 seconds, twice. This video is my second time. After a half minute, on your second jump, the instructor offers to take you up way high. So there's that.

It was an interesting experience, but the tiny amount of time spent was not worth $$$$$ in my opinion, unless you are under 35, in which case this sort of expensive adrenaline rush appeals to you.

Nevertheless, we paid a shit tonne of money (like about $100 per person) so we got a free video with it. ("free") (but it's standard def you cheapskates!)

My heart was racing after each "jump".
