1. Jump for number one - tandem parachute jump
Gifts to outdo yourself never disappoint. If you're looking for a Christmas gift for the daredevil who won't be caught off guard, a tandem skydive shouldn't be missing from under the tree. Even the bravest of the brave will wonder if they should have stayed on the ground during the half-hour plane ride. But once they and their instructor step out of the plane and free-fall down the 4km drop at 200km/h, there will be no time to think.
After a minute of freefall, the parachute opens and the endorphins kick in. The euphoria is indescribable! Fortunately, there will still be ten or fifteen minutes to absorb the experience, during which he will slowly crawl to the ground. The instructor will be happy to let you take control of the parachute for a while to make sure this aerial experience is complete.
