(slang) A person who is not a skydiver.

There's a wonderful sense of camraderie among skydivers, Mr. Ottley said. It's like a secret fraternity. Initiates speak easily of swooping (joining a formation) and funneling (breaking one up). Outsiders are called whuffos -- shorthand for What for you do that crazy stuff? You can always tell a whuffo right away, Mr. Ottley said. They call the sport 'diving' instead of 'skydiving.' We think diving is what you do in a pool.
