$119 for Tandem Skydiving Jump (Up to $259 Value)

Tandem jumps pair thrill-seekers with veteran skydiving instructors, who lend expertise and a sense of security to exhilarating free falls and scenic parachute rides down to earth. After an aircraft lifts diving duos to 10,500 feet above the tallest caterpillars, jumpers—who are thoroughly harnessed to a parachute-equipped professional—leap out into the blue. Divers experience the earth's unbridled gravitational power while ripping through the troposphere, an experience that lasts about 50 seconds, or the time it takes a science teacher to rip apart an inaccurate drawing of the troposphere. The dive master then pulls the parachute cord, slowing the fall to a leisurely four-minute glide over the area.

Though Start Skydiving sometimes features a discounted price online, this Groupon still offers the best deal available.

Start Skydiving

Start Skydiving owes its ranking as the number-one skydiving location on dropzone.com to its staff of master skydivers, pilots, and instructors. The team navigates its aircraft thousands of feet in the air for tandem or AFF solo skydives, and the jumpers help novices in obtaining their own USPA B, C, or D licenses. Newly inducted divers can gear up with Start Skydiving’s online store, which carries everything from altimeters and flight-specific shirts to tickets for rides on hot-air balloons or twin-engine pterodactyls.

The Groupon Guide to: TV Shows Becoming Movies

While some lament that Hollywood is running out of ideas, many of those same complainers forget that Hollywood came up with the single best idea of all time: turning old television shows into movies. What classic sitcoms are soon to be adapted for the big screen?

  • The Spookletons (1961–1967): The new family next door aren’t your average neighbors—they’re a family of skeletons! Hilarity ensues as they try to get along with their neighbor, a straight-laced beat cop who thought he’d seen everything—until now!

  • The Chillingsworths (1962–1965): When a new family moves into the neighborhood, they’re not what they appear to be—unless they appear to be a vampire who married a werewolf! They’ll definitely turn some heads walking their infant son—a baby Creature from the Black Lagoon—past the home of their uptight neighbors, a pastry chef and a senator who frequently needs to be up early.

  • The Scary Family (1960–1981): Something odd is going on with the new neighbors—they’re a shelf full of brains living in jars! Watch the sparks fly as their neurotic neighbors—a jittery patent attorney and an easily startled corporate accountant—continue living their lives, peacefully unaware that house next door isn’t just simply between owners right now.

Was there really a 1960s sitcom about a family of skeletons?
