If you're going to make a parachute jump, how high should you be?!
Question: I don't want to go over like 10 or 12 feet high, cause that might hurt if it doesnt work...

try a pint of Kool aid and vodka.
chute won't open if you are only 12 feet high.
YES ! I did try it.
Around 4000 feet.
10 Feet is nothing from your ceiling to ure floor is 10feet tryy
70000000000000000000000 feet altitude is what i did
the hieght enough for the chute to open
I'd say a couple bowls should stop the pain.
10-12 feet, you should use an umbrella. Just don't do it where it's too windy or you'll get blown away like Mary Bobbins into a jet engine.
I hear penguins fly pretty high in the sky. Just jump on the back of one and you will be set.. Just remember to dress warmly. They live in cold places.
I would say at least 4 shots of tequilla.
for a skydiver with a C or D license (advanced or expert) the minimum opening altitude is 2000 feet above the ground. for B license it is 2500 feet and for A license it is 3000 feet. Student and tandems open around 4000 feet above the ground. this is to allow time to fix a malfunctioning main parachute and/or cut away and get on the reserve parachute.
I just a Performance Designs Spectre 210. This parachute, at least the way I pack, takes about 800 feet to open when I'm falling at terminal velocity. If I pitch right out of the door of the aircraft and open in the prop blast I might only be a few feet below the aircraft after opening.
My reserve parachute will open in 400 feet or less. they are designed to open very fast. As a skydiver, the general rule is that if I'm in the plane and we are under 1000 feet above the ground I will stay in the plane. If we are above 1000 feet, I can exit, but if we are under 2000 feet I will exit on my reserve, meaning I will use my reserve parachute without even trying my main. If I exit the aircraft over 2000 feet above the ground I will use my main.
Base jumpers have made jumps from a couple hundred feet up to several thousand feet.
The biggest factor is the packing style and the material.
I love skydiving and I hope you'll give it a try!
There are a couple websites you need to check out to get good info on skydiving.
http://www.uspa.org is the website of the United States Parachute Association, the governing body for sport parachuting in the United States. There is a list of member dropzones on the website along with all sorts of great info on the sport.
The official site for the British Parachute Association is: http://www.bpa.org.uk/links.htm
The official site for the Canadian Parachute Association is: http://www.cspa.ca/
http://www.dropzone.com is another great resource for everything about skydiving and some BASE too.
