We all have a bucket list that includes some of the most absurd and near impossible things in it. Because who would want to die without trying their hand on some of the most insane shit in this world? No one!
The same goes for this grandma from Pennsylvania, US, who celebrated her 94th birthday by jumping out of a plane. Yes, she skydived at the age of 94.
Eila Campbell, the 94-year-old, is a resident of Williamsport, Pennsylvania and she went for the skydiving adventure along with her granddaughter and great-granddaughter. Campbell decided to do what she always longed for, instead of simply celebrating her 94th birthday at home. She went skydiving at the Above The Poconos Skydiving in Hazle Township.
She told WNEP, “This year, when I’m going to be this age, this old, I figured I’ll never make it for another year, I better do it now.”
Campbell’s granddaughter, Sarah Schuelke, was as excited as her grandmother and said, “This was her bucket list and there was no way I was missing the most incredible matriarch jumping for one of the greatest families, I wasn’t going to miss it.”

Eila’s made the jump while being attached a more experienced skydiver and they both made it safely to the ground.
Don Keller, the owner of the skydiving company and a Guinness record-holder for “most parachute descents”, said that he’s never seen anyone as old as Campbell, jump.
Campbell’s entire experience shows us how age is just a number and one should do whatever they want to do, in this lifetime only.
