I sent it to one of my coworkers, a 50+ grandfather who broke his ankle several weeks ago skydiving. As you might imagine, we've given him some good natured ragging over it (his office is decorated with toy soldier skydivers and we gave him a Paratrooper GI Joe doll, complete with ankle cast and pins).

The record for jumping out of a plane and surviving without a parachute is, the last time I looked, over 26,000 feet high. It happened to a Soviet airman during WWII. Of course, once you've hit terminal velocity (happens about 11 seconds/1000 feet after leaving the plane), any higher altitude doesn't translate to higher speed unless you do a head-stand.

Like we used to say in the Paratroops, "You can fall for miles without getting a scratch. It's the last inch that kills you."
