68 Women Attempt A Skydiving World Record

68 skydiving women from around the world will descend on Skydive Perris this weekend in an attempt at a world record feat – a series of giant aerial snowflakes. 

Jumping from an altitude that requires additional oxygen supply, these fearless women will jump from 18,000 feet from 4 separate planes and reach speeds of 120 miles per hour. 

In a daring and intricate attempt to break the world record, 2 different snowflake formations will be attempted in succession. If those 2 formations are a success, a third formation will be tried. Then the women will break away from each other and open their shoots. 

 The women, ranging in age from 21 to 65, have jumped out of an airplane a minimum of 685 times. While the most experienced of the group has taken the leap for 18,000 jumps.

“This record isn’t just about breaking numbers; it’s about pushing boundaries and showing what’s possible when women come together with a shared passion and determination,” said Kate Cooper-Jensen, one of the lead organizers. “It’s an honor to be part of this incredible journey with such talented skydivers from around the world.” 

The event takes place Thursday, October 3 to Sunday, October 6, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. PDT.
