As a skydiver, it can be difficult to be accepted for
life insurance. Fueled by their ignorance and fear of the
sport, many insurance companies excluded benefits when the cause is
skydiving, or worse, they reject the applicant altogether. Or,
they will only insure if you make less than 20 jumps a year!
WE know how much MORE dangerous an uncurrent jumper is, but who
understands that?
