First, people are taken to the height of 3,400m on a plane, which is generally the wide grasslands, and then they are made to jump. Provided that they keep calm and control their adrenaline rush, the joy will be eternal, or say, one-of-its-kind.

Having said that, your instructor will always be there to help you stay calm and enjoy the flight.
