Sky diving granny video

  • 16 years ago
She might not be as extreme as the wing-walking skydiver, but Hilda Pearson wins our "Bravest Granny of the Year" award. The 89-year-old woman took a 10,000 feet skydiving plunge in Australia to raise money for cancer research. Pearson decided to undertake the challenge after her daughter died from the disease one year ago. Up next for the unstoppable thrill-seeker are a hot air balloon ride, a helicopter trip and swimming lessons. Keep up the extreme spirit, grandma! We wish we had half your courage
