K: Look, I don’t get on a plane without taking Ativan. Minae, you’ve seen me. I’m a mess on the airplane. So the thought of jumping out of one, just didn’t make any sense to me. That’s why I cried like a baby. I was terrified. I knew I was going to do it, I just didn’t understand how.

M: I wore diapers under my jump suit because I was scared that I would be so frightened, I would pee my panties. Now that’s scary.

K: Yeah, you said right from jump you were going to do that. And sure as shittin’ you did.

M: Turns out, I didn’t need them though. Jumped out like a pro and landed like a beautiful, Asian, Bald Eagle.

K: Were those diapers comfortable?

M: Actually after I put them on, I forgot I was wearing them. I guess they were made for comfort? I don't know. I thought it would feel bulky, but it was actually very nice.

K: Sky diving was absolutely the scariest thing I’ve ever done in my life, but also one of the greatest things I could’ve done.

M: I was soooooo scared the week before. Having nightmares and constant anxiety. You on the other hand were as cool as a cucumber. Then we get to the skydiving facility and our roles change. All of a sudden I started to calm down and you started to cry.

K: Yeah, I figured, what's the point in thinking about how scared I am. I know I'm going to do it, so I figured I might as well just get on with it. Ummm, yeah..... I unraveled the minute we rolled up. My voice sounded crazy. It's so funny when I watch the footage. So sad for me. But I did it. Life changing. My mind felt like it exploded afterwards. There were literally no words to explain it.... which was nice. All feeling.

M: Jumping for me wasn’t just about hopping out of a plane. I was in a place in my life where I was tired of being scared and jumping for me represented letting go and going for it. The experience changed me.

K: Letting go. Not so easy sometimes, but skydiving is an experience that I can always refer to when I need to jump again in my life.

M: It's like when you jump....all you could be is in that moment. You aren't thinking about what errands you have to do, or if you remembered to pick up your clothes at the dry cleaners or whether you want chicken or beef for dinner. You are just there, in the air, in that moment....and it's so amazing.
