"These jumps are not the work of a long planning process they are the result of spontaneous actions, the feeling of saying 'yeah, lets try that today.' This is the way that my friends and I live and we think that the 'I'll try anything once' attitude is the best way to make the most of your life. So go out there and do something completely crazy. You might even enjoy it, but there's no way to know unless you try it." - Luke

"My jumping is a tradition that my mother and I share whenever we travel together. It's become such a fun pastime that we've carried it all throughout Europe in our travels! I attached a collage showing some of my examples...I'm so happy that other people jump for fun too!" -Michelle
