Very cool event. Tied the world record for tandem sky dives at age 100. Set the record earlier this year at 103

This was so freaking awesome to watch! Thank you for posting/sharing. I wish I had half the guts that Al and his friend did, I have a tormenting fear of heights from an incident that happened to me as a child. I had an issue with PTSD for many years because of it.. but as an adult I thought I’d try conquering my fears by doing just what Al did but it ended up just being a nice plane ride for me, once I calmed down that is. LoL I was terrified to the point of panic and tears and very thankful that I wasn’t forced to jump in that moment.. but in hindsight I sometimes wish that the dude behind me that I was strapped to would have just gone for it.. except he probably knew that my imbedded fingernails would need to be surgically removed from his skin afterwards. LoL I managed to go parasailing a couple of years after my skydiving attempt, it was embarrassingly scary too. I won’t go into the details. LoL I’m nearly 60 (yikes!) years old, I’m in good shape and I’m down to try most anything as long as it’s on the ground, even climbing a tall ladder gives me the heebie-geebies. Have you guys ever had a customer who came to you with similar issues, and if so how did you handle it? Did they back out or jump? Shine, from WA, state. 😊🌻 Edit: I just viewed Al’s pre-jump video. Wow, and I thought I was impressed with him before! What a unique individual he is, it’s hard to believe that he’s 100 yrs old, I swear he looks like he couldn’t be more than 70! My hubby is approaching 70 and in the process of getting his pilots license, you’re never too old to achieve your dreams.

My wife taught Yoga classes and Al was in her Grumpy Old Men Yoga class. He really is amazing.
