OMAHA, July 21 (UPI) -- An 89-year-old Omaha man who went skydiving for the first time last week said he had wanted to jump ever since his son and grandson told him how great it was.
Howard Hanson jumped with his son, Dale, and grandson, Michael, at an altitude of 13,000 feet -- after a day of training at Plattsmouth Municipal Airport, in Plattsmouth, Neb., KETV, Omaha, reported.
He said got the bug after Dale Hanson made his fist jump last year.
"When you're sailing, just floating before the parachute opens, that's the wonderful part of it," Howard Hanson said.
Dale Hanson shot the grand event with a helmet camera.
