Such is the situation, best described for a paragliding experience in Manali. Just the thought of it is enough for someone to be on the ninth cloud. But the activity, actually, in literal terms takes one to the ninth cloud. To jump off an 8,000ft-10,000ft cliff and coming down on to the land by gliding on the air, sounds and feels mesmerizing.
