According to this -->http://www.aircapitaldropzone.com/iad.htm

you need a picture ID to skydive. Do you think that dreamers like myself can skydive by bringing a passport or something? (I honestly want my first skydiving to be done solo so I'm willing to take these 4 to 5 hour classes and get a cool skydiving license).

This question is only for those who have gone skydiving: Is skydiving really that dangerous as the media portrays? I've done some research and it seems pretty darn safe (in fact, it's safer than driving). Also, what's it like? I've seen many videos and it looked like they were having a ton of fun.

I've been wanting to skydive too but has been putting it off. But my uncle did go skydiving and he said it was a amazing adrenaline rush. Passport should be fine, I'm sure tourist also try skydiving too.

I went sky diving in Titusville, Florida. I was also worried about the picture I.D. thing, but turns out that all I needed was my passport. They don't really care what kind of I.D. it is as long as it has your birth date, they care more about the $$ lol. I had a lot of fun, I went with a group of my friends. I did the tandem sky dive, so the instructor was attached to me the whole time, no homo. I think you'll enjoy it! My only suggestion would be to make sure your shoes are tied, my friend lost his when he jumped out!
