  • and somebody says, "yeah!

  • We should go skydiving tomorrow!"

  • and you go, "yeah, we'll go skydiving tomorrow!"

  • (cheering)

  • everyone goes, "yeah!"

  • so then, that night you're laying in your bed

  • and you just keep... (scared noise)

  • and you're terrified, you keep imagining

  • over and over again, jumping out of an airplane

  • and you can't figure out why you would do that.

  • You wake up the next day and you go down

  • where you said you were going to meet and everybody's there.

  • So you get in a van and be like,

  • "oh my god, oh my god..."

  • and your stomach is terrible, you can't eat and everything

  • but you don't wanna be the only punk

  • who doesn't jump out of this airplane.

  • So you fly and you go up, you go up,

  • you go up, you go up to 14,000 feet

  • and somebody opens the door and in that moment,

  • you realized you've never been in a freaking airplane

  • with the door open and you're looking out

  • down to death and they say, "on three!"

  • and they say, "one, two..."

  • and he pushes you on two because

  • people grab on three and you go,

  • (screaming)

  • and you fall out of the airplane

  • and in one second, you realized,

  • that it's the most blissful experience of your life,

  • you're flying, with zero fear.

  • You realize that at the brink of maximum danger,

  • is the point of minimum fear, it's bliss!

  • Why were you scared in your bed, the night before?

  • Why did you need that fear for?

  • Everything up to the stepping out,

  • there's actually no reason to be scared.

  • It only just ruins your day.

  • The best things in life, on the other side of terror,

  • on the other side of your maximum fear,

  • are all of the best things in life.

  • (dramatic music)

- You take a drink with your friends
