Parachute jump in 90 years and without legs (photo)
Bashny.Net
Our elders give odds young. 90-year-old Alexei Mikheyev of Dokuchaevsk (Donetsk region) lost his leg at Stalingrad, but this circumstance and age did not prevent him to make a parachute jump.
On the level of 3600, a full minute of free flight and 4 minutes under the canopy.
Kostya writes in his blog:
Hi! 3 years ago I watched a 87-year veteran of the Dokuchaevsk exercised their heart's desire and jumped c parachute jump from 3,600 meters. The other day he repeated his record (no one seems on the continent did not dare prodelyvat such things at his age), and again I was lucky to be there. Today in our newspaper published an article with a dull picture, so let em are cards that I liked the most. All pep! And, I forgot to say - my grandfather in addition no one leg - the result of being wounded in the battle of Stalingrad. In general, a unique person, would write about him a lot and nice, but I can not. But the pictures - it please.
