I was once in a pretty bad car accident and I didn't scream...I saw a car loose control on the ice and drift in my lane (head on), and in those 5 to 7 seconds, I only thought to myself, "this is going to hurt". First, let me say that at the time I knew it was going to be a pretty bad collision....and in fact I spent a couple months learning to walk again. So I dont think that screaming is an automatic reaction that everyone has...

come on, lets not debate about my joking post pls.

But let me ask the question:

Will the figures have some motion in their face or is he always looking static?

That second sky diving accident has to be faked. If it's not then...still an owie but better than the alternative.

I remember a video of a stunt man hanging on the undercarriage of a small plane, no chute. When he lost his grip, just a curse word grunted out, no scream. I also don't remember hearing about screams from the jumpers at the World Trade Center and that was about a 10 second fall. I think unless I was working on something like a fouled chute, I would be screaming.

Heck, I've jumped out of a perfectly good airplane twice and had to consciously suppress a scream. Seriously, the scariest thing I have ever done by choice, glad I hit the men's room before take off ;). On the tandem jump, the little gal that I was attached to pretty much shamed me out of the plane by name calling and cursing lol. BTW, once the chute opens, it's one of the best feelings in the world...but I won't be doing it again. I love getting tossed around the sky in a small aircraft and have no fear there, just not that parachute thing.

Thanks for the videos even though they gave me the willies. I'm guessing I am going to have a few of those "falling" dreams over the next few nights so, ah, thanks for that...

Someone was saying something about the water looking to dark not remembering that it will change colour probably by depth and cloud cover

A good point; actually I think you have nailed the reaction there. A scream is more when something happens like when someone makes you jump etc
Perhaps in this type of situation, the adrenaline kicks in to try and decide whether to 'fight or flight' as it were.

Quite interesting really, but maybe we're thinking too hard about such a small aspect?

the trees look quite nice here; although probably no-where near as detailed as those shown recently.
