There's an American company that offers 15 parabolas in a 727 for $5,000 a flight, and Novespace actually offers flights for 6000€ a ticket. Might work with a sponsor.

On the early parabolas, you look like you're trying to swim underwater, which is probably the closest thing you'd experienced previously. Of course, the air isn't dense enough to make that work, but it's a logical thing to try.

Recommend using a machine to hammer the steel. Part of the reason hammers are so effective is because you add energy to them on the upstroke and downstroke, but the energy only converts to kinetic on the downstroke. Ugh, and the tiny shards of metal flying everywhere. You'd absolutely need to do it in a glove box to prevent metallic dust and tiny shards getting everywhere.

The sinking feeling you get in a rollercoaster isn't because of free fall. It's due to the cart accelerating downwards faster than you'd expect. That's why actual free fall (0G) doesn't feel like that.

I'm not sure I buy that, because I've had that feeling on particularly fast lifts before -- that's only about 0.9G or 0.8G -- and on log flumes that are definitely going slower than freefall. That said, I don't have a better explanation! -- Tom

Is it possibly also in part due to the fact that (presumably) the airflow around you remains mostly static on the zero G flight, and in a coaster you generally have some turbulent gusts swirling and streaming past you, adding to the whole monkey-brain reaction of "this is how I die"? Though I doubt that explanation has more than a teeny fragment of truth to it, as you mentioned lifts doing it too, and those are enclosed. (I get that feeling too! Some lifts are absolutely awful, stairs are better.) Perhaps it's part of the very well-researched and controlled parabolic trajectory (I presume the exact path has been tweaked to near-perfection over the years) providing a constant and mostly smooth transition to and from freefall, where instead of a bile-sloshing jolt, you're treated to a gentle increase in 'weightlessness'.

Plus the fact that you have self contained breathing apparatus means that Space travel companies have already tagged Divers as the most likely space tourists because of their familiarity with both the sensations and life sustaining equipment. I’m so jealous right now! Fantastic opportunity, congratulations. Your next stop should be the International Space Station.

I don't think going over a humpback bridge is quite the same thing, same with a rollercoaster. You're not actually experiencing freefall in those instances, you're going from positive G force to negative G force without a noticeable gap in between. In order to get the same feeling you would need to 'catch air', which is entirely possible to do with a humpback bridge if you're going fast enough. It's also possible with a rollercoaster, but would probably be followed by a rather permanent cessation of all feeling....

The 'Dream of Flying' that I have is like mentally controlled floating where I can move around as I wish but I don't have to resist the pull of gravity, I will it away. This is common to others I have talked to about it. Where do you suppose this shared/similar dream comes from? It doesn't match swinging through the trees because while it shares the weightless aspect it lacks the sense of control, I.E. you go where inertia sends you to the next grip not zooming around where you want.

As a private pilot, I LOVE doing zero-G pushovers (I can only maintain 0G for about 3 seconds, though), but I don't like roller coasters, and I HATE the Hollywood Tower of Terror. I've found that the speed of entry makes a big difference in how they feel (gentle vs abrupt), and they're a lot nicer when you push over slowly. I'm guessing that that has a lot to do with how you felt (combined with the anti-nausea meds), and why you notice it more on elevators and humps in the road. I've ridden high-speed elevators in hotels that can travel 40 floors in 30 seconds, and you don't notice any acceleration at all, either up or down, but I've also been on the regular slow elevators which will drop out from under you when they start, which lends credence to the "da/dt" theory.

Just my own observations on that stomach-drop feeling, with the caveat that I actually enjoy it, so I've sought out ways to get it. I've found that if I know exactly when the drop is going to happen, I don't get that stomach drop feeling. I don't think it's a frame of reference thing, because I actually get the sensation more often with my eyes closed, where I don't really have a frame of reference, or when I'm in a moving car, in the back seat, and not watching the windows. Ultimately, I think what saved you there is that they countdown to the drop, so you were able to brace yourself and mentally prepare for it. It didn't catch you by surprise. Also the nausea medification. That helps too.

It’s funny to watch Tom talking about the humpback bridge feeling here now that he’s talked about how that’s all fear

I'm thinking of all those cosplay artists with winged angelic or draconic costumes that could have a HELL of a photoshoot in that aircraft. Hovering in mid-air, wings spread, so cool.

The drop in your stomach on roller coasters is because of negative Gs. Inertia makes your body move up, relative to the cart, but the strap will pull your body down with the cart. Everything inside your body is still trying to move up, including your stomach.

Is "medification" a British term or just a Matt term? Because I've only ever heard "medication" :P

It's a portmanteau of _medication_ and _edification._ If you strengthen someone using medicine, that's medification.

The feeling in your guts when you go over the hill is because your body is attached to the car, or roller coaster, but your guts aren't. Everything that is not attached to your skeleton moves through its natural parabola but everything that is attached to your skeleton moves with the vehicle's parabola. That feeling is your guts moving compared to the rest of you. Anytime you truly free fall though your skeleton and your guts accelerate at the same rate, don't move compared to each other, and therefore don't cause the feeling. The same should be true for bungee jumping and sky diving.

This is so cool!! That stomach feeling during drops is what I hate, so maybe I wouldn't be a failure on this? 😁😁
