“Wow! That’s high…” Then her voice drowned out and disappeared.
The wind out at sea was strong and there was no cover. The parachute drifted higher with the breeze. The speedboat pulled on the parachute. Chu He looked relaxed. With the sea breeze and her feet high in the air, Chu He didn’t feel nervous at all. Instead, she felt free!
She was reminded of the first time she jumped off the helicopter. She had stood in the helicopter and looked at the sky below her. Even though she tried to look calm, she was in fact feeling uneasy and nervous.
Parachuting is never a hundred percent safe. The accident rate is very high. Especially for newbies, if they do not have a good grasp of the essentials, it is easy to fail in the jump. Even if an accident doesn’t happen, injuries are likely. Everything else aside, just the state of mind when facing such a high altitude is definitely not something that most ordinary folks can understand.
Yun Shishi was watching this from the water’s edge when Gu Jinglian came over to her. “What’s this?” he asked in a daze as he saw Chu He drifting away.
!!
“This is parasailing!” Yun Shishi said nervously, “Why do I feel a little scared? It seems high. Chu He’s flown so far out. I wonder if she’ll be scared?”
Gu Jinglian glanced at her disapprovingly and said, “Scared? What is there to be scared of? She will not be scared.”
“How brave of her.” Yun Shishi was genuinely impressed. She had seen many brave men, but not one like Chu He, who had no fear of any hardship. She was even braver than most men.
Ten minutes later, in the distance, Yun Shishi could see the parachute slowly descending over the sea. Chu He had fallen into the sea, but because of the life jacket’s protection, she was floating.
The coach descended the boarding ladder and tried to reach for her. Instead of grabbing his hand, however, Chu He climbed onto the vessel by herself with ease. Soon, the speedboat was heading at high speed towards the coast.
Yun Shishi and Gu Jinglian heard the speedboat and turned towards the sound. They then saw Chu He standing on the speedboat, giving them a triumphant thumbs-up.
“It’s awesome! You must try it!”
When Yun Shishi heard this, she looked again at the high altitude where Chu He had flown, but still felt a lingering fear.
“Isn’t it too high?”
“I don’t think so.”
Compared to skydiving, this was very friendly. As it was an entertainment activity for the general public, the height was something that most ordinary people could handle.
Chu He said to her, “At this height, I don’t need to wear a safety vest. I can grab the safety catch with my bare hands.”
The parachute had a safety catch that required both hands to grip, but most people didn’t have the sort of grip strength required.
The coach wasn’t impressed to hear this. “How is that possible?! You can’t hold on to anything at this altitude. If you fall, you’ll fall dozens of feet beneath the sea. It’s no different from falling from a tall building.”
Yun Shishi laughed too. “Chu He, that’s too dangerous.”
“Really.” Chu He said solemnly, “When I was a new recruit practicing parachuting, there was one time when I didn’t fasten my safety vest properly. It fell off in mid-air. I held on to the safety lock until I landed safely.”
The coach was aghast when he heard this. Not to mention a thousand meters up in the air, even if it were a few thousand meters, it is definitely not easy to grab the safety lock with one’s bare hands.
