Shout out to Alfred “Al” Blaschke born January 4th, 1917 who has reclaimed his Guinness World Record for the world’s oldest skydiver.
The 106-year-old Texan originally earned the title of the oldest person to tandem skydive when he jumped at the age of 103 in 2020, but his record was broken by a Swedish woman who was 103 years and 259 days old when she went skydiving.
Al suited up recaptured his record by going skydiving at the age of 106 years and 327 days old. He was joined by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott who made his first jump in the skies over Fentress, Texas. Way to go Al!
