What will you do to celebrate your birthday no matter it costs???

Fred Mack celebrated his 100th birthday by impressively performing a 13,000 feet tandemskydive at Free Fall Adventures - setting the new world record for the Oldest tandem skydiving jumper.

弗里德·麦克以一惊人壮举来庆祝自己的百岁生日——从13000英尺高空跳下，进行串联式自由跳伞。同时也创下了年龄最大的串联跳伞世界纪录。

On his 100th birthday, Fred Mack suited up to jump 13,000 feet from the sky. His slight hesitation didn't stop him from taking the plunge of a lifetime. After a few minutes of flying high, the Newton Square man made a safe landing that even took him by surprise.

在百岁生日当天，弗里德·麦克早早准备好进行高空跳伞。尽管有一丝迟疑，他还是进行了跳伞。在几分钟的高空飞行后，这位老人安全着陆了，连他自己也惊讶不已。

When asked how he felt after the event, Mack, who clearly takes life day to day, simply replied, “I’m still alive.”

当被问及是何感受时，这位百岁老人只是淡淡地答道：“我还活着。”

Fred Mack says he first tried skydiving on his 95th birthday. Mack promised his friends who came and supported him the first time, that he would come back for a second jump, if he lived to see 100.

弗里德·麦克称在他95岁生日时首次尝试高空跳伞，并向当时支持他的朋友们承诺说，如果有幸能活到100岁，他将再次进行此项运动。
