Today I learnt: you're never too old to plummet from a plane (unless you're older than 97)



















A 97-year-old man from Dorset is believed to have become Britain's oldest skydiver after jumping out of a plane at 10,000ft (3,048m).

Man, I hope I'm still up for jumping out of a plane when I'm 97 instead of rotting alone and cripplingly arthritic in stale urine, unloved and abandoned.

Just think of all that flapping skin.

Video of the momentous jump here.
