Do I have to jump off a cliff
No, you don't jump off anything. Paragliders are usually launched by running off moderate slopes with the glider inflated, until it lifts you off your feet. If the glider does not inflate properly, the take off is aborted.

If the idea of looking out to the horizon as you sit comfortably in your harness in the sky with a bird or two for company appeals to you, then paragliding is for you.
