ltdiver 3 #1 August 22, 2006 Ever think what you'll be celebrating when you're 99 years old? Well, I got to experience one incredible woman's adventure with her yesterday when she came out to make her, get this, 8th tandem skydive. 9 years ago Mary Cunningham was asked what she wanted to do for her 90th birthday. She responded, "I want to jump out of a plane". Her family thought she was just kidding and when they asked again, weeks later, she repeated her desire. They couldn't believe it, but they called up The Jim Wallace and booked the flight. 9 years later, Mary came back to complete her 8th jump with Jim...and I got to tag along with video. Mary is one incredible woman. Light hearted and full of fire she kept us laughing and smiling the whole time. I think I even heard her say that she wanted to see what she could do to get extra altitude this time! Congratulations, Mary! We haven't stopped smiling since you graced us with your presence yesterday.
