Skydiving is not for the faint of heart, and can be seen as an activity that many would never even consider doing ѻý regardless of age.
For one Campbell River grandmother, however, it was the perfect way to celebrate her 90th birthday in style.
Lucy celebrated the milestone with her family at the Campbell River Skydive Centre earlier this month. Her granddaughter Chloe also joined her in the skydiving experience.
Together, Lucy and Chloe both took the plunge from high in the sky with an instructor safely strapped in behind each of them. The rest of their family patiently waited below for them to land.
James Murphy, the instructor who took Lucy for her tandem skydive, said he felt honoured to share the experience with her, as she was the most senior person he has ever taken for a jump.
ѻýShe was excited but very relaxed through the whole experience,ѻý he said. ѻýLucy is living proof that age doesnѻýt have to limit your experiences.ѻý
In a Facebook post commemorating the event, the skydive centre thanked Lucy and her family for allowing them to share in Lucyѻýs ѻýspecial moment.ѻý
ѻýSheѻýs living her best life,ѻý ѻýLucy is my new heroѻý and ѻýamazing womanѻý are just some of the many comments people wrote on the post, congratulating Lucy on her birthday and her life.
