Free Fall World Record Set by 108 Skydivers等Free Fall World Record Set by 108 Skydivers A team of 108 US skydivers have set a world record for the biggest ever formation of people in head-first free fall. The 108 international freeflyers were carefully selected over a year of qualifications from events around the world.

Timing of the stunt was so crucial they had just one second after linking together to break off and prepare for a safe landing. Jumpers needed to begin preparations for a safe touchdown at just 7,000 feet.

World air sports officials judged the attempt and confirmed it as a record when the jumpers returned to their base.
