Pensioner flies into record books after becoming Britain’s oldest skydiver(1/3)

A plucky pensioner has become Britain’s oldest female skydiver at the age of 94. Adeline Franken braved a 15,000 ft jump on Sunday to raise money for Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI). She previously skydived from the slightly lower height of 14,000 ft in 2012 but has not lost the knack for it since, even after passing her 90th birthday. (Photo/VCG)
