So I was watching a Taco Bell commercial where the guy jumps out of the plane with a crunch wrap, and for some reason, I thought of paintball. Paintball + Skydiving= fun? I don't know why the hell I thought of this, and I don't care if no one responds I just wanted to get it out there... |

Couldn't ever work. The speed at which you're freefalling wouldn't allow the shots to fly right at all. As soon as they left the marker, they'd be jetted up into the air by the force of the air as you're falling. I think. I failed physics, but that seems like the most possible outcome. |

So, you know that it could never work and that it is a stupid and pointless idea, and yet you posted it anyway? |

Do you realize how much the insurance would be on something like that? You would go bankrupt before you even touched the paintball gun. -------------

ultralights are those little plane like things with a parachute style wing up above, and then the propeler is behind the seat. it kinda looks like a airboat hung under a parachute or hangglider. |

Ultralights are just a slightly less dumb idea than skydiving. The players could not be allowed to shoot back at all. Two person ultralights can be sketchy. Insurance would be a nightmare. ------------- <just say no to unnecessarily sexualized sigs> |

You know, it would work... so long as the air cylinder was strong enough to not explode in the low-pressure environment. Of course, every shot you fired would propel you in the opposite direction. ------------- <Removed overly wide sig. Tsk, you know better.> |

Or, you could just fire the marker in the other direction and use the reaction to get back to where you started from. -------------
