Then I see the plane! It looks like it can barely hold 4 people, and was so light I was amazed. We were standing in the parking lot, and I had my harness on, already anxious and filled with anticipation. I’ll take you back 10 minutes before I jumped out of a perfectly good airplane. Speaking of rising crescendos, lets get back to my Free Fallin’. Free Fallin’, Breakdown, American Girl, and others.

His shows were great, one big sing-a-long where the crowd’s energy would be palpable, rising to a crescendo, giving you chills. He had his problems, but always seemed to bring a great energy in concert. I was really sad when he died I think his heart finally gave out from the lifestyle of booze and drugs. He was able to relay that into his lyrics, which seemed universal to all of our experiences in life. He had humble beginnings, and always seemed to be down to earth. His gift was taking a simple 3 chord progression, then writing a fantastic song that is catchy, a song one can sing at will and a story that related to them. Tom Petty was always one of my favorites. There are highs and lows, and all of it is new and exciting. The lyrics describe a girl from the suburbs and them falling in love, and riding the roller coaster that is love. One of the quintessential Tom Petty songs, Free Fallin’ is a song that everyone knows and enjoys. It seems like an obvious leap that I would choose this song around this experience. On the way, and afterwards, I had this song in my head. And when the parachute opens and you can really take in where you are and how beautiful the scenery is, you are humbled by how monstrous the world is compared to our tiny being. It feels like a lot longer, a mix of adrenaline, fear, and excitement, overloading your senses and distorting all sense of time.

That’s how long you are in free fall after jumping out of a plane, or at least that’s what they told me.
