Skydiving Medical Certificate
So, you plan on jumping out of a plane? While skydiving is a highly popular extreme sport, it’s not without its risks.
That’s why anyone over the age of 40, and all tandem jumpers, require a medical certificate signed and stamped by a registered doctor. This rule also applies for anyone who’s had any of the following medical conditions:
- Epilepsy
- Severe head injury
- Recurrent blackouts
- Any kind of brain or nervous system disease
- Hypertension
- Heart or lung disease
- Diabetes
- Mental illness
- Drug or alcohol addiction
Please note, this list is not exclusive. Please check with the your skydiving authority if you’re at all unsure if you require a medical before the big jump.
At LDC, we’ve seen plenty of people planning this crazy jump, and all our registered London GPs are more than happy to perform a brief medical exam and provide the necessary certificate to get you on your way.
You will need to bring with you a summary of your medical notes.
