TIP: If you're a Jump Pilot and you're skydivers want to do this, hopefully they will ask you first, also it is very important to bank the airplane slightly to the right. That way when they drop, they fall AWAY from the airplane. If you have the airplane banked even a little bit to the left it is possible that they might strike the right main landing gear and/or step.
A cool picture of my skydivers Stephen doing what's called a "Bat Hang" from a Cessna 182! In case you can not make it out, he is hanging upside down by hooking his feet to the leading edge of the wing!
