Updated | By East Coast Breakfast
A skydiver has made history by pulling off one of the most dangerous stunts ever!
He's performed over 18 000 jumps and his latest is the most bizarre!
Luke Aikins has made history by skydiving 25,000 feet (7500 M) without a parachute. The 42-year-old performed the stunt with no mishaps landing almost in the middle of the safety net.
Aikins initially wore a parachute for precautionary measures, and right before the jump he decided otherwise saying, "the need to wear a parachute would have made the jump more dangerous because of the need to adjust his position as he approached the net" he told The Telegraph.
