Packing a parachute is not unlike packing a bag lunch; it's a bummer when your mom puts old ham in either one. Leave packing to the experts with today's Groupon: for $115, you get one tandem skydiving session from Sportations (a $284.99 value). Sportations, one of the largest adventure-sports providers in the United States, gives air-ready revelers a new way to view New York City with tandem skydiving. Altitude seekers will be briefed on jump safety for approximately 30 minutes before flying to a dizzying altitude. With a certified professional skydiving instructor and equipment strapped to your back for the duration of the gravitational ride, you'll be free to wave to passing birds, take in the view, and grab onto drops of light making their way back home to the sun. The staff at Sportations prides itself on customer service and on amassing extreme sports providers from all over the country in one place. Allow them to take care of the details of your earth-bound journey while you contemplate why ants look so much like humans when viewed from above. Sportations' skydiving season runs from March through November.
