I had the time of my life this past weekend – Tim McGraw’s “Live Like You Were Dying” pretty much sums it up. After dreaming about skydiving for years, I finally mustered up the courage, visited the Parachute School of Toronto – and more importantly, found a few other newbies who wanted to try it with me!

We headed to Baldwin, On., where the school is located – complete with a morning of diving, laughs, and tummy butterflies.

Their experienced instructors took us 13,500 feet into the air, where we jumped out of the aircraft. Their staff, instructors, and media gurus (I pick the word ‘guru’ because it takes a sh!t load of skill to jump out of a plane and open your parachute, all while taking photos and videos) were as nice as ever.

Do I recommend this? I HIGHLY recommend it.
