conv: I have such a fear of heights.  So when my husband kindly bought me a skydiving voucher for my 30th birthday I was slightly anxious and uneasy.  I of course thought of the worst! I travelled up in the plane with the lovely instructors who of course tried everything in their power to reassure me but to no avail. I was so nervous and panicky.  However I am so glad I did it!  After the initial panic when we jumped_comma_ it was actually one of the most amazing experiences of my life! I have such a fear of flying_comma_ so you can just imagine how I felt when my husband bought us a sky diving voucher for my 30th birthday! He was so excited and I was so nervous and uneasy. He's a brave man. How was the experience? Well the day came and off we travelled.  We arrived at the place only to find all our friends and family there to cheer us on.  Up we went in the plane and of course while the lovely instructors tried to reassure me the whole time_comma_ i tried desperately to keep my breakfast down!  However after the nerves and initial panic when we jumped out_comma_ it was actually one of the most amazing experiences of my life! It sounds incredible! Hopefully it helped you conquer your fear! It certainly did.  I would definitely recommend it.  My husband though is another story.  He has a fear of the sea and underwater so you can just guess what I will be buying him for his next big birthday haha.
