I'd like to skydive, but almost everyone I know who has done it said something along the lines of, "So I did the two training tandem jumps, got hooked on it, and then I went and spent a couple of thousands dollars on equipment." The closest places to skydive by my house are also at least two hours away and in New Jersey.
I've been on a lot of cliffs, I don't think I've ever had the desire to jump off of one. Possibly to rappel, but even after doing that a lot, I still find the first bit where you sit back over the edge to be absolutely terrifying. I'm not scared of heights, just sudden stops.
