The history of sky diving started with the successful jump of Andre-Jacques Garnerin in 1797. After that, many years have passed and this has become an international sport which is now recognized worldwide.

Exiting from an aircraft and making your way back to the earth again with the help of parachute is called sky diving. This adventure sport is now done in many places of the world. Generally the diver is deployed from a height from about one thousand to four thousand meters. If the diver makes the jump from less height, the parachute is opened immediately after the fall. At higher altitudes, the diver has the option of falling freely for a short period of time.

After the parachute is deployed, it takes about five to seven minutes to reach safe speeds  at which one may fall. By the time the parachute opens, the diver drops down by about eight hundred meters. The parachute has toggles by which its direction can be controlled.

Many people make their first jump with their trainer. It is hard to do it alone if it is the first time. Deaths while parachuting are very rare. Although that does not mean that casualties are zero. Every year, parachuting takes lives. But the ratio is very low. In USA, it is about 100000:1. So I think you can understand that how less the number of casualties are.

Try out this sport; I think you will surely remember it for a lifetime.

Camping is one of the best ways of recreation for every age of people. It is not only informative but also refreshing. “Plan for the worse and hope for the best”, this old saying must be the base on which you must prepare the list for your camping trip. Always be prepared just in case something unexpected happens.

Creating a list of things required much in advance of the camp out, is a must as that may avoid the situation of things being left out. What you need will depend largely on what type of camping trip you’re planning. Go for some researching ahead of time about things like water availability, weather, etc. that will help you determine which items to pack.

Decide with whom you are camping. Make sure you get insurance information and health information before you do anything else. If someone is injured on the trip, the insurance information will make a huge difference in the care they receive. Health information is very important in planning the trip.3

Set up a first aid kit. Decide how long you will stay and figure out where you will be sleeping. Few items like matches, toilet paper, a flashlight and rain gear should be packed for every trip, regardless of whether you think you might need them or not. Other essential items include clothes, toiletries, rope, sleeping bags, duct tapes, tent, etc.

Pack an appropriate amount of food. Try not to pack too many perishable food items, like cheese, chicken, and milk. Snacks, crackers must be preferred. If you plan to cook on the camp you may also need things like camp stove, fuel charcoal, lighter fluid, firewood grill, etc.

Finally, you should consider what items will keep you comfortable and amused on your camping trip books, a radio, playing cards, your journal, art supplies, board games and musical instruments all add to a cozy domestic camping style. Gather all the things in the list and pack them in a small, lightweight bag. Do not over pack.
