At 103, she jumped out of a plane — and became Ohio's oldest skydiver

A woman in Ohio decided her bucket list was not finished. At 103 years old, she jumped out of a plane and set the record for the oldest person ever to go skydiving in Ohio, in a story reported by Gray DC's The Good Side this week. No long interview, no fuss — just a centenarian, a parachute, and a state record that now belongs to someone who has lived through more than a century of Ohio skies without once falling through them on purpose. Until now.
