Dude, I have never ridden in a helicopter before, but I know one piece of advice, under NO circumstance, DO NOT EVER *jump* out of a helicopter

This sounds really dumb, but listen:

You need to duck your head down

No Joke

This sounds like dumb advice, but trust me, this will save your life

@dugglebutt In the wise words of Herman Melville:

"STICK TO THE BOAT, is your true motto in whaling; but cases will sometimes happen when LEAP FROM THE BOAT, is still better."

@gwcoffey I am absolutely terrified and when I say terrified, I am absolutely scared as shit by the ocean.

My father was in the navy and he always said, “The Ocean is not your friend. Its job is to kill you”

And yanno what? He was not incorrect

(I get the reference, Moby Dick, btw)

@dugglebutt I have never been on the open ocean but the idea terrifies me too. I will add though that THE WHOLE UNIVERSE is trying to kill you. Kind of funny how much I depend on this tiny slip of air and rock and call it safe.
