Can jumping be a spiritual experience?

[Ambivalent1]

What does one truly experience mentally during a 10 second fall?

Probably deep regret and SI. At least it will be over quick.

Deep regret why? What if your life was awful and you exhausted all options to get better?

Fear I imagine. Ever jumped on a trampolene and gone too high and felt out of control? I imagine that. If you want to 'rehearse' though- why not try a bungee jump or sky dive?

I've tried it, kinda accidentally as a child.
Your instinct kicks in, you lose control of your body because of fear, etc.
I think you need some sort of proper mindset to do it. I would never do that again.

Sky diving actually doesn't replicate it but Bungie jumping does. Bungie jumping can also snap your neck

How?

Depends on the person. If you're truly ready to go and not afraid of death or heights, then yeah it could be a euphoric few seconds.

Some people are obviously terrified though and some even have heart attacks before hitting the ground. Still would only be seconds worth of suffering, there are far worse ways you could go!

Is the rack worse? How about being drawn and quartered?

How?

Was just walking around the edges of the rooftop of the 15th floor apartment, thinking, what would it feel like to just off myself. I accidentally fell, but I got hold of some gap in the wall with my sticky child hands. I was able to climb back with minor scratches. For a fleeting moment when I was in the air, I felt extreme fear that I've never felt even to this day, except when I had a nightmare of a slenderman stealing my icecream and candies from my fridge. I probably felt more fear because it was accidental.

One of the better ways to go actually...

According to William Wallace, it felt like total freedom!

What did it feel like? Use words you've nevwe imagined before

I don't know how to express fear into words, but like.. yea first thing I thought to myself: "shit, not like this"
And then time slows, and my short twelve-year-old life flashed before my eyes. Sometimes I wonder if I hadn't had the knowledge that your life flashes before your eyes the moment you are about to die, would my life have flashed before my eyes? It's the chicken or the egg kinda problem. It was such a brief and a long moment at the same time. It's crazy how my sister felt almost the same thing when she had a car accident. That was all until I got hold of the gap in the wall, and regained control over my body after a few deep breaths.

Or if you want me to use words like I've never imagined before: "Aaargsdfdfdhof"

why would we have deep regret? maybe fear but i dont think an actual suicidal person would regret it

 

[cjs0712]

nope, not like that. That looks too romanticized.. falling is falling and falling is scary unless you are intoxicated or something

I will have vodka at the ready. What would falling while drunk be like?
