It’s a fun experience, but not exactly a freefall. There’s definitely some friction and it feels like a fast repel down. It’s easier to jump than I thought because there is tension in the cable holding you before you jump or step over the edge. The fall gets you going about 45 mph, and then stops you pretty abruptly towards the very bottom. I also noticed that you have to prepare to hit the concrete and actually absorb some of the movement with your legs. I saw one older gentleman kind of trip forward when he actually reached the landing point… so just prepare for that and keep your legs at the ready. I was a bit concerned about neck and back sensitivity, and I think there’s a little bit of jarring motion throughout, but overall it was fairly comfortable. The harness is very secure, the jumpsuit kept me at a comfortable temperature, and even with the wind rushing by I didn’t need glasses or anything and I could see and enjoy the descent. - via
