Frequently asked questions

What's the most intense moment of the jump?
Freefall starts the second you exit the aircraft at 4,000 metres. That first 3 to 5 seconds of pure acceleration is what most jumpers describe as the hardest to anticipate, even after the briefing.
Do you need to be comfortable with heights to do this?
Most first-timers are not. At 4,000 metres, there's no visible ground reference the way there is on a cliff edge, which actually makes the altitude feel more abstract. The fear of heights as you know it on a ladder or balcony doesn't apply here.
How long is the actual freefall at 4,000 metres?
A jump from 4,000 metres typically produces around 20 to 25 seconds of freefall before canopy deployment. The total 2h duration includes ground briefing, gearing up and the flight to altitude.
Is the experience conducted in English?
Yes. Paris Jump offers the briefing and jump in both French and English, so non-French speakers get the full safety brief without missing anything.
