That's a tricky question to answer as that varies depending on which country you are talking about. I skydive in the UK and over here there is a pretty even split between Freeflyers (falling in a head up or head down position) and Formation Skydiving (falling on your belly).
You will find that formation skydiving jumpers are much more interested in competing than freeflyers.
Because our activity needs good weather (winds, cloud ceilings) to accomplish.

In a Venn diagram, nurses and skydivers are two distinct groups with some overlapping characteristics. Nurses are healthcare professionals focused on patient care, while skydivers engage in the recreational activity of jumping from aircraft and free-falling before deploying a parachute. The overlap might include attributes such as the need for training and adherence to safety protocols, as both professions require a high level of skill and awareness. Additionally, both roles can involve teamwork and quick decision-making in critical situations.
The altitude of which a skydiver jumps from depends on different variables such as the type of plane and also the style of fall. Plus, beginner skydivers are usually falling tandem as most instructors will not allow them to jump alone. The typical altitudes are between 12,500 feet above ground level and 18,000 feet above ground level.
This is often a tennis ball filled with lead to weight it down. It is then passed between skydivers in freefall. This is a tricky and skilled thing to do by freefly skydivers.
No, skydivers fall at different speeds depending on their body position and weight. However, experienced skydivers often aim for a terminal velocity of around 120 mph (193 km/h) to maximize their control and safety during freefall.
