Skydivers make 'Largest Wingsuit Formation Dive' in US
London, January 23 (ANI): Nearly 70 skydivers from across the globe jumped from up to 13,000ft to make the 'Largest Wingsuit Formation Dive' in the US history.
The 68 participants, from 16 different countries, spent months perfecting the mid air stunt over Lake Elsinore, California.
They divided themselves into groups of four, falling for over a minute before assembling in a diamond formation, reports the Telegraph.
Non-profit organisation Raise the Sky organised the event hoping to raise funds with each jump.
President Taya Weiss said "We drop out of planes to keep kids from dropping out of school." (ANI)
