As a diver I hate to burst everyones bubble but being neutrally buoyant in water does not resemble being weightless. You still feel gravity, you'd get closer to feeling weightless if you went skydiving.

@freemo@qoto.org Skydiving inside a descending plane for that illusion, I think? Because otherwise all the wind and approaching ground will give you the feeling that you are plummeting to certain doom. πŸ˜…

@trinsec if it were in a plane following a parabolic curve you'd get an even better feel for it. Good luck affording it :)

@freemo@qoto.org Looks like it costs 6000 euro to pay for 15 paraboles in one flight.

@freemo@qoto.org Yeah, if you wanted to go for the experience, you can at least save up for it.

Ever done this?
