That is just too cool, I would love to do that but have been told because of my 2 very bad knee's that the landing could cause me some problem's

Actually landings are VERY gentle... Either standing (with no more impact than walking down stairs) or sitting (land on your bum... very little impact) One of my best friends jumps with a prosthetic leg.
In fact, the instructor my wife was with, regularly takes a quadriplegic enthusiast skydiving. The oldest that he's had dive, at his jump business, is 95 years young!
