What does freefall feel like?

[Magic Pixel]

If there are any experienced skydivers visiting I hope you'll tell us how freefall feels. What's the speed like and what's it like up there?

I think you just need to try it out, because I believe it would be really hard to describe a feeling, and they would all be different.
I am going to do a tandem jump when I have the time again to do it, and hope I can show you then here a movie ...

Woooooow what is freefall? Is that what it sounds like? Falling without a parachute??

Yes. It's that time in between jumping from the plane and before you pull the parachute cord. You're just falling through the air without anything holding you back.
