Jump from two miles above the earth and freefall at terminal velocity before floating gently to the ground under the parachute – all whilst harnessed to a fully qualified parachuting instructor!
There’s no experience like jumping out of a plane at 14,000 feet and soaring through the sky at speeds of up to 125mph! Take on the thrill of a lifetime and help raise vital funds for My Sight Notts at the same time!
