I don't reckon I could jump out of a plane :$

Nor do a bungee jump, but if there was no feeling of gravity at all....awesome.

From http://www.space.com/news/ap_051230_tourism_rules.html :

Passengers also would have to be trained on how to respond during emergencies, including the loss of cabin pressure, fire and smoke, as well as how to get out of the vehicle safely.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, if it becomes necessary to exit the spacecraft when we are two miles above the earth, please follow the the lighted strips on the floor to the nearest exit, and don't forget to wait before you are outside the spacecraft to inflate your lifejacket"

I've went skydiving before, went with my lil bro on his 18th Bday awhile back and thought it was amazing. I'd do it again in a heart beat. There have been very few things in my lifetime I forked out $150 for and came away feeling like I cheated them out.

As for space walking, yeah I'd do that BUT...... I'd have to get beamed up into space Star Trek style because I don't even slightly trust are current space shuttles and the people that decide that they are safe. Space walk hell yeah, a ride in a space shuttle only if I was feeling suicidal.
