Dorothy Hoffner becomes the oldest living skydiver at age 104

A skydiving business in Chicago is aiming to make history by recognizing a 104-year-old woman named Dorothy Hoffner as the oldest person to go tandem skydiving.

Just recently, she took the plunge and unofficially broke the previous record set by a 103-year-old skydiver from Sweden. The video shared by Skydive Chicago on Facebook shows the incredible moment when Dorothy and her tandem partner landed to a cheering crowd.

They're even submitting evidence to Guinness World Records for official recognition. This isn't Dorothy's first skydiving adventure either - she previously celebrated her 100th birthday with a skydive.
