Today, I'm in Mexico and am supposed to be skydiving for my Christmas gift. Instead, I'm coming out of the hospital with x-rays, an ankle splint, and a $800 bill because I fell on the bottom step of a flight of stairs. FML

Sounds like you aren't skydiving material anyways.

Holy shit man I feel for you. I've been wanting to skydive for years, I would be crushed if I didn't get to go at the last moment.

I live in Mexico, it obviously depends on the place you go skydiving, there are profesionals on it, i hate when people talk bas about MExico, when there are good thing here.BTW some nike thing are mada in Mexico.

Obviously Nike things are there because their bullshit policy on waste, they can just dump all garbage in the river next to the factory and no one will care

Well you can always lie and say you had a skydiving accident, that would be machoistic without being sexist or mysogynistic...

Due I feel your pain but I'd have gone skidiving anyways. I rolled my ankle at the begining on december, getting off my bed, its still swollen and still hurts when I move it in certain postions. I still went snowboarding on boxing day even though my ankle was still swollen and still hurt sometimes (its the ankle I lead with, the chairlift rides were kinda painful, lol). But then again I didn't bother with a doctors visit, I merely made the educated guess that I have a sprained ankle. FYL hope you get to go skidiving eventually.

Consider yourself lucky! Never ever go skydiving (or bungee jumping) in Mexico! They just don't have the safety regulations like in civilized parts of the world!

That is a sign- do NOT go skydiving.

Ok first of all mexican extreme sports/activities have the same safety regulations as anywhere in the world, all of you who find it "sketchy" seem to lack any sense of common sense and culture. It is also true that Mexico has free health insurance, 800 dollars for an ankle splint seems far fetched.

Probably a good thing OP, if you can't handle stairs, how do you think you're going to be able to handle skydiving?
