you need a lot of training and need to be super fit, very brave, and realise it will be very physically demanding

you need to learn how to fall and land safely - this is one of the main things, but also not lose your bottle as you are falling out of a helicopter into the sea etc etc

you should seek out courses and training centres, over the net, and get yourself in training - some kind of fighting skills may be a good idea, like martial arts, swords etc, and control of a high speed vehicle etc - depends what your angle and speciality is.
