^ You either have so little jumps or so much time if you can calculate it that precisely :)

Actually, it is all calculated for me, in a handy spreadsheet logbook.
I have much more info than that too.
And yeah, I don't have too many jumps, and I have alot of time...

for example, 0%of my jumps are from a cliff at night

I've done wingsuit terminal E's at midnight, although Norwegian summer nights aren't really that scary ;)

Tons of people im sure.

My first E was at night in a rock quarry. It had one or two lights at the bottom near huge piece of machinery that made the whole scene look very creepy and awesome. Had plenty of time to look at it on the hour long hike out. Very cool jump.

Don't have a night/day option on my logbook spreadsheet. That is a cool idea.

So wouldn't that mean 100% of your E jumps are during the day? Not 15%

well. i guess you have to look at it in a broad sense.
the percentages are broken down too, as part of my total jumps
15% of my total jumps are off a cliff in the day.

Yes. I'm pretty sure he means 15% of his total jumps is from an E during the day.

Gauley try reading the statistics vertically instead of horizontally. Now add the corresponding letters after deciphering the day/night ratio. E makes up 15% of his overall jumps, and none of them are at night.
