… just watch “Why We Jump” and u know why. By the way… can’t wait for myself to jump in a few weeks again. It’s a breathtaking thrill u will never forget.

Why We Jump from EnglishJon.com on Vimeo.

I wanted to take a new perspective with skydiving, and ask the simple question "Why Do You Jump".

From jumpers who have made a career from the skydive industry, to some of the best skydivers in the world. Why they jump and how it feels are given a unique insight. Coupled together with some of my favorite skydive shots from the last year, i hope to bridge the gap between the jumper and the non-jumper.

Many thanks to everyone who contributed time, footage and made the jumps happen.
