 Our
most recent Covert
Ops Counter Terror Adventure near Miami received rave
reviews from all participants, including our lone female
operative. (She did complain there wasn't enough yelling,
but she did it with a smiley face.)
When asked to sum up her experience, Sue wrote: "Ready
to take care of terrorists....NOT! But aware of my surroundings
and my shooting skills taken up a notch."
Mark had so many great things to say about Covert Ops, we only
have room to print a portion of his kind words:
"The covert ops training
was stupendous and outstanding in every way. I cannot give
you enough accolades for Garret
and his wonderful support in Jarred and Moshe. Garret is
a superb, brilliant, and highly intelligent, and patient
instructor. I cannot imagine a better teacher anywhere in
the world. So good that I will be going back for further
instruction and I will sign up for any other courses provided.
I will never train with anyone else....I strongly recommend
this adventure to anyone who wants to grow, be challenged,
and leave with superior skills and confidence. This is a
profound life experience – it changed my life
for the better. I cannot wait to go back.
Our next four-day Covert Ops Counter
Terror Adventures are set for August 9th - 12th and
December 6th-9th. For complete details, visit our website

 Our world-traveling
hot air stunt pilot Steiger was
in and above Gulf Shores, Alabama last week for the popular
three-day Hangout Music Festival. The event reportedly drew
a crowd of 35,000 to the beaches of Gulf Shores, Alabama.
Steiger's appearance
was arranged by the people behind Hippie
Social, a new smart phone application. Steiger's one-of-a-kind
promotional flight over the  Gulf required
extensive advance planning and detailed knowledge
of the winds. (A water landing would not have been good.)
When Steiger isn't
off flying adventurers across the Alps, Andes or some other
incredible spot, he's available to help promote your business
or product. You can place your advertising message on one
of the 50 or so balloons at a balloon festival, or you can
arrange a custom flight with Steiger through Incredible Adventures
and own the sky.
For more information about our "air powered"
offerings, call, email
or visit our

 Each
year, adult great white sharks make their way to San
Francisco's Farallon Islands to feed on the area's population
of elephant seals. The annual migration makes the
Farallones one of the best places in the world to view
an adult white shark in the wild.
 We'll
take you there. Our great white
shark viewing expeditions begin September 22 and continue
through November 18. Dates are already starting to fill
up, so make your reservation for a cage dive or topside
adventure soon for the best date selection.
No dive experience is necessary. Expeditions are staffed
with both certified dive staff and trained naturalists.
Cage divers pay $875 and topsiders pay $375 for an incredible
day in an incredible place. For more info, visit our website
or call or email
Sheri.
Interested in more time shark diving? Consider one of our
liveaboard
trips to Isla Guadalupe, Mexico. Multi-day trips aboard
the Nautilus Explorer begin and end in San Diego,
California. Sheri
has all the info.
 Colin
just returned from his second trip to Russia to fly the incredible
MiG-29. Based on what he emailed Greg on his return,
our friends at the base will be seeing him again soon.
Here's one of our favorite Colin-isms:
"I would wash, vacuum and clean every MiG
for two years for a 45 minute flight, if Oleg is agreeable
to that. It is, as you say, very addictive, maybe not for
everyone but certainly for me."
We'll tell you more about Colin's
MiG flights and the way he's used his flights to raise
awareness for ovarian cancer in a future newsletter.
If you'd like to fly a MiG-29 in Russia,
email
or call Greg. Flights are addictive. Don't say we didn't
warn you.
 If
you don't already "like" us, but would like to,
you can find our company page here.

incredible adventure on the World's Highest Gig Facebook page.

Side note: If you've got some extra time, check
out this
fun article and video posted by the Streatham

UK pub and played guitar suspended in air.

Here's a bit of what Chris, one of our recent HALO skydivers,
had to say about his high-altitude skydive:
"Hello Greg. I had an awesome time. Although
the jump initially didn't feel any more remarkable
than a regular  jump from
14K, the similarities quickly ended. The thin
air (little resistance) followed by the discernible
levels of thermals, were definitely a wow factor,
but the biggest impression was the endless free fall.
I thought I was falling forever, and the ground wasn't
getting any closer, this was truly a remarkable experience.
I thought I was going to face extreme cold and extreme
speed, but both were negligible. With the ambient
temperature at -41F coupled with 200+ MPH descend,
one would expect a very chilling experience, but this
was not the case, it was a very comfortable ride.
...I was extremely overwhelmed by the experience
and would recommend this to jumpers of any level,
even first time jumpers..."
If you'd like to make your own HALO jump near
Memphis, give us a call or send us an email. Jump
season runs through October. For more information
about the military-style high-altitude jumps, please

A high-altitude skydive
from a plane is incredible. A high-altitude skydive from
a hot air balloon is incredible. "Incredible"
doesn't begin to describe the experience of making
a high-altitude leap with a view of the world's tallest
mountain.
Don't take our word for it. Skydive
Everest this October with Wendy, Tom and the rest
of the Everest Skydive
team. Whether it's your very first skydive, or your
500th, it's sure to be an incredible adventure.
Limited space is available and advance planning is
mandatory. For details, visit
our website or send us an email.
