I'm going to be strapped to someone and having it filmed too so I'll post some pics after I land.

Brilliant! Must applaud Mrs Timeblue's excellent gift ideas I'm sure you'll love it - I did a static line jump years ago where you jump alone but your parachute is connected to the aircraft by a special gadget that opens it for you once you drop away. It was from 2000 feet which sounds a lot but actually the regular jumpers at the airfield said they'd never jump from so low as there's not a lot of time to correct any hiccups. Luckily they told me that after I'd landed You had to steer yourself and there was a kind of radio over which they talked you down, however I still managed to end up in some bushes You'll be jumping from much higher so you can enjoy the free fall bit before the chute opens, it will be amazing!

Apparently it will be from 15000ft if the weather is ok. Mrs T says if I survive ENJOY this one then she has other ideas for my next assignment....

Lion taming, jumping the Grand Canyon on a motorcycle, tightrope walk across Niagara Falls and negotiating a minefield blindfold is what I’ve heard she has lined up.

Why am I thinking that these could all be possibilities?

I don't see cake eating contest on Mrs T's list. Though not too treacherous, I know Time would excel at this feat, too!
You are a brave boy.
