As an amazing birthday present off Jill this year, we spent a few hours on Sentosa experiencing the iFly. "iFly is the world's largest themed wind tunnel for indoor skydiving. There's no jumping, no plunging, no bad weather and no aeroplanes, just sheer exhilaration and an adrenaline rush like no other."
It certainly was different to the actual skydive I did back in 2009 over Lake Taupo in New Zealand. First and foremost I wasn't half as nervous! Secondly the experience is easier to savor. Although I remember jumping out the plane three years ago there are parts of it that I can't recall (although I have a pretty cool DVD to look back on!). iFly experiences give you two skydives in the Flight Chamber (we opted to pay for an extra so got three altogether) and the time you for each dive is like falling through the air from 12,000 to 3,000 feet. Doing a real dive you would be out in the open air. But the iFly wind tunnel spans 16.5 feet wide and is 56.5 feet tall, which is almost five stories high. It has an 18 foot tall acrylic glass wall so you view out over the South China Sea ... that's if you aren't concentrating too hard!!!! A massive thank you to Jill for an unforgettable birthday present!
