Probably the Weirdest Thing I Have Ever Done for Work

So last week for work we had a team building offsite. I know what you are thinking, because it is what I thought originally. You're thinking work offsite where you sit around and play cheesy ice breaker games and some how learn more about the people you work with. Usually these offsites are really more work than fun because you are all forced to do things no body really likes doing.


However, I was pleasantly surprised, or more acurately, totally shocked when I found out what we were actually doing. See below for a few pictures that speak for themselves.



I sure all of you are thinking to yourself. There is no way Heidi actually did indoor sky diving. She is not an adventurous person. Well that is what I thought myself. Fortunately I have some proof...

Here is the practice time with our instructor. This is the position you are supposed to hold while 100 - 120 mph wind holds your body up in the air. Here Derek is telling me that I need to bend my legs more. Oh and you are supposed to relax.


Here is me right before we went into the locked room. Do you like my Superman colored suit. Pretty sweet, hey? It even has red down the back like a cape. Everyone else was totally jealous. Unfortunately, I don't have pictures of my actual flight since they wouldn't let us take any lose items in (go figure). I do have a sweet video of my flights if anyone wants to see it. If anyone has ever had the random thought to do this, it is totally fun. I give it two thumbs up!

No one can do a flight suit like you can, Heidi. I want to see the video!

Heidi, now we are blog following friends. YEAH! I would like you to officially and formally retract the statement, "Heidi is not an adventurous person". Rubish!!! One need only look at your blog and pictures to see that you are in fact a very adventurous person! Silly girl. :)
