\"Alberto<\/p>\n

What do skydivers have in common?<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

The<\/strong> skydivemag.com<\/strong><\/a> team analyzed personality traits at DZs and wind tunnels, coming up with these commonalities. Recognize yourself?<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Rules don’t apply to us<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

We text and drive, for example. We\u2019re used to assessing risk right?!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We\u2019re selfish<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

When we turn down an event we want to do, we\u2019re secretly glad when the weather is pants<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We\u2019re poor communicators<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

We plan on going to an event but we don’t let anybody know or register<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We behave like children<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

“Yes I’ll come to your event if you find me a rig\/a bed for the night\/babysitter”<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We\u2019re last minute.com<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

We book our flights really late, and then hate ourselves because they’re so expensive<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We change our plans frequently<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

So then we even need to change our last minute flight<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We\u2019re safety conscious<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

We have to make sure the air bag’s functioning correctly in our rental car! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We have a strange attitude to money<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

We spend 700 bucks on jumps but baulk at paying $50 for a hotel<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We\u2019re hunter-gatherers<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

We automatically fill our pockets with food from the hotel breakfast buffet \u2013 even when not skydiving<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We can\u2019t break old habits<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Even when not team training we have to tell someone we\u2019re going to the bathroom<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We don’t like people telling us what to do<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Especially when they’re right<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve seen stuff<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

We know at least one person who\u2019s living proof of the marvels of modern surgery<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We probably don’t have a pension<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

We\u2019re not sure it\u2019s a realistic investment<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We have a credit card bill<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Naturally \u2013 or we have no credit, or we\u2019re DZ bums<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll always have a bed for the night<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Anywhere around the world the skydiving community looks after its own<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Warning!<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Recognizing yourself in 10 or more of the above confirms you\u2019re of skydiver species!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
