Is called Montse Mechado and is currently 81 years old. It turns out that this woman made her first jump when she was 49 years old. Today his purpose is to reach and exceed 1000 jumps.

He started in this hobby at the hands of his son. One day he took her sailing and after that to parachute at her insistence. That day fulfilled an old dream that he had since 1952 when he saw a parachutist jump from a jet in an exhibition in El Prat.

From that day on he has been perfecting his jumps and he loves freestyle. In fact, the judges at one freestyle contest were in awe of her and invited her to come to Arizona for another contest.

Incredible Montse's will to live, I would be incapable of skydiving and she with 81 years ... well. Anyone should try to continue doing what they like no matter how old they are, the real problem comes when, as Daniel says, day-to-day life becomes sitting in front of the television
Impressive case. Seeing these kinds of things gives you hope and motivates you to keep fighting for your dreams. Thank you very much Daniel for sharing it.
