Medical Condition Can you skydive? Serious sinus/ ear infections/ issues Yes, but you will need a doctor’s note to say it is fine for you to do so. Serious back pain Yes, but it is advised you get a doctor’s note. If you feel your back is particularly bad just before your jump, it is probably a good idea to not go. Asthma/ Bronchitis Yes. Again, you will need a doctor’s note. Collapsed lung No, you will not be allowed to skydive. Uncontrolled high blood pressure or hypertension No, you will not be able to skydive if your blood pressure is not controlled by medication. Skydiving can give people anxiety which will increase the blood pressure. If you take medication for these conditions, check with your doctor before you jump. Being drunk or under the influence of drugs No, you will not be permitted to skydive & will be sent away. Epilepsy Yes, you can tandem dive if you haven’t had a seizure in the past 2 years and have not taken any other medication. It is probably a good idea to check with a medical professional beforehand. Stroke No, you cannot skydive if you have recently had a stroke. Colds and flu If you have the flu or have a cold at the time of the skydive, you will not be able to jump due to increased risk of sinus damage. Cancer It is likely you will be able to skydive with cancer, however it does depend what type of cancer you have and what stage. You should speak to your doctor before you jump. Pregnancy No, you cannot tandem skydive if it is your first time at any point during pregnancy. If you have skydived before, you can skydive during pregnancy. Downs syndrome Yes! Infectious diseases e.g., hepatitis or TB No, it is possible that during your skydive you might vomit or get other bodily fluids on your instructor. However, you are able to learn to skydive without the assistance of an instructor. Diabetes Yes, you can skydive but it is best to check with your doctor. It is important to understand the risks associated with skydiving and diabetes. Had surgery within the last 3 months No, you will not be permitted to skydive and should wait at least 6 months and consult your doctor beforehand. Vertigo Yes, but it is a good idea to check with your doctor as skydiving could cause your vertigo to deteriorate.
I hope this quick article has helped clear up how the fear might affect you, and why you don’t need to be super scared of it. While almost everyone I’ve spoken to shares the same feelings as the two experiences in this article, do bear in mind your own body and experience might be different.
