Well technically, you normally jump *out* of the plane (although it's a
lot of fun just to hang on the outside and just let go ;-), but if you
really want to know, try it and find out. As I've heard it said:

Those that do can't explain. Those that don't can't understand.

and

If riding in an airplane is flying, then riding in a boat is swimming.

Actually, the love of falling is very common. People just don't
normally fall very far. Kids jump on beds and off rocks, people jump
off diving boards, on trampolines, onto haystacks and so on. Skydiving
just gives you the most time and the best view. ;-)
