FighterSweep Staff No Comments Civilian Aviation, Photos, Video

Not the first time skydiving without a parachute has been done but still a sight to see!

And there was this…nothing but net!

Millions of people across the globe held their breath as American skydiver Luke Aikins jumped out of a plane to fall into a net 25,000 feet (7,620 m) below. The daring stunt is now in the history books as the first complete jump without a parachute.
