Darren and David will be jumping out of a plane to help St Nicholas Hospice celebrate 40 years of caring by taking part in ‘St Nic’s 40 @ 40 Skydive Day’ on Sunday, August 4, 2024.
They’ll board an aircraft and soar to around 13,000 feet (approximately two miles high!). When they leave the plane, they’ll fall at about 120mph, descending to 5,000 feet in around 40 seconds.
At this point, their instructor will open the parachute and fly them safely back to earth, enjoying breathtaking views during the six minutes under the parachute.
