A skydiver who swears she’s not an adrenaline junkie calls to talk with Gethard about the joys of plummeting to earth from 13,000 feet. She’s got 500 jumps under her belt, and only one of them has ended in two broken feet. She shares an action-movie-worthy story that is possibly the most harrowing tale we’ve ever heard on the show. Fair warning, this one’s intense. But it’s also fun and–if you’re looking for an excuse to do something that scares you–inspiring, too.
