World's Oldest Skydiver

15th May 2017 - Liz Hourahine

After completing his first tandem skydive at the age of 100 in 2016, Verdun Hayes came back for more to break the world record for the oldest person to do a skydive at the age of 101 and 38 days. On the 14th of May 2017 he arrived with 10 members of his family who spanned across 3 generations so they could all do a skydive as part of this fantastic occasion. On top of all this they managed to raise an impressive amount of money for the Royal British Legion.

Verdun completed his skydive from the highest you can in the UK without extra oxygen, 15000ft.
