Are there any special requirements for Everest skydivers?
Jumpers should be at least 18 years old and in good physical health, but a physical disability may not prevent you from jumping. If you have any questions regarding your ability to skydive Everest, call or email Incredible Adventures. Tandem skydiving makes it possible for people to skydive who may be incapable of making a solo jump. If you are unable to complete the trekking portion of the program, we can suggest alternate ways to acclimatize to high-altitude.

What kind of aircraft is used for the Everest Skydive?
Everest skydivers jump from an AS 350 B3 Eurocopter helicopter. (Eurocopter is now Airbus Helicopters.) This is the leading rescue helicopter in the upper Himalaya region and is known for its incredible performance at high altitude. Our jump aircraft is piloted by experienced mountain and skydiving pilots.

Is the Everest Skydive Adventure safe?
Skydiving is an extreme sport and carries risks, including the risk of death. You will be required to sign a release of liability and assume all risks. That said, our team has been delivering Everest Skydives since 2008 and is made up of highly-experienced skydiving professionals. The equipment used is state-of-the-art. Safety is our number one priority.
