What are the oxygen levels like during the jump? I've suffered from aneamia so wondering if that would effect things at all.

I've only jumped once (from 10,500 feet/about 3200m) but you can tell that the air gets thin. It's not difficult to breathe or anything, but it's definitely noticeable. For anemia or something like that, I would ask your doctor- it would not be good to pass out on the way up (or on the way down!).

Sounds like a variometer, which is basically used to measure vertical speed- it's used for gliders to find lift.
