00:00I said I might lose my flower.
00:03Hey, welcome to Skydive Australia.
00:05All three of you are going to jump out of a plane today.
00:07How are you guys feeling? Excited?
00:09Yeah, excited.
00:10I'm psyched up.
00:11Yeah? You nervous at all?
00:13No.
00:13Not really.
00:14No? This is your second, third time?
00:16Third time.
00:16Awesome.
00:17And what's the reason? Why are we doing this?
00:1918.
00:20Bear's birthday.
00:21Big day, mate. You feeling good?
00:23Yeah.
00:24Ready to go?
00:24Yeah.
00:25Thumbs up. Let's go have a good job.
00:29I had been working in India just as a voluntary thing, teaching women how to make dress patterns.
00:37And it was a bit dusty and all of that.
00:40And I got up to Nepal and I saw people paragliding.
00:44I mean, the air was fresh and clear mountain air and all of that sort of stuff.
00:48And I thought, yes, that's for me.
00:50I could do that. I'd love to do that.
00:53That will be my reward.
00:54And so I did it there.
00:57I did paragliding again in Chile over the desert.
01:01And I did it again in Turkey over the Mediterranean.
01:05I never felt that I had any fear.
01:08I think the paragliding probably, you know, got me attuned to that sort of thing.
01:17Because that's not scary at all.
01:20You just sit up there.
01:21Yeah, I'm not afraid of heights, obviously.
01:23Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:25It's 15,000 feet up there.
01:27It's pretty cold.
01:29It is cold and windy.
01:32You can hardly put your hand out because you're going so fast.
01:36I've tucked my hands back into my chest because otherwise my arms would get blown off.
01:42Yeah.
01:42It would be going so fast.
01:44I don't think there's anything really to be afraid of.
01:48I've got a funny philosophy.
01:50Say if the parachute doesn't open.
01:53Well, you're going to hit the ground.
01:56You're going to die anyway.
01:57You know, it's not going to hurt because it would be such a big splat.
02:05So you may as well leave your body on the way down.
02:08There's no use going down and screaming and shouting and stuff like that.
02:12You might as well, you know, just enjoy the ride.
02:16Yeah.
02:17I think it's a great way to look at it.
02:39Hey, Catherine, you just jumped out of the pole.
02:41Yeah, I did.
02:42And now you're flying our houses.
02:44I'm flying your parents here.
02:45We kept your flowers right.
02:47How awesome.
02:47Yeah, I'm fabulous.
02:48So what we're going to do is pull down with your right hand.
02:52And we turn right.
02:53Oh.
02:54Let's go up.
02:56A little bit to the left for me.
02:58It's kind of heavy.
02:59Keep a big smile for me.
03:01Let's go up.
03:02All right, we're going to do this.
03:03Let's go all the way to the right.
03:05So all the way.
03:07Go.
03:12Let them both up.
03:14You can just let them go for me.
03:15If you let your hand draw the way up.
03:17Let them both go.
03:18Let's go.
03:19Let your hands down.
03:21And give me a big smile.
03:22And a big thumbs up.
03:23Big smile.
03:50We are back on the ground.
03:54Catherine, what do you think of that?
03:55Oh, pretty amazing.
03:57Yeah.
03:57I think it's amazing that we kept that flower.
04:00Hey, what did you enjoy the most?
04:02The jump, the view, the flying?
04:03Dump it out.
04:04As soon as I got off.
04:06My shoes were about to fall.
04:08Do you think you guys would do it again?
04:10I'm doing it.
04:11What about you, Catherine?
04:12Oh, yeah.
04:12Should we go again tomorrow?
04:14Yeah, okay.
04:14High five.
04:16Thanks so much.
04:17Nice to meet you guys.
04:18Thank you so much.
04:19We'll see you guys again.
04:20Have a great day, okay?
04:21Woo!
04:21Woo!
04:21Yes!
04:21Woo!
04:22Woo!
04:22Woo!
04:23Woo!
04:23You
