The daring jump was not simply about ticking an item off a bucket list. Still took on the challenge to support a local organisation that brings people together through social events, recreational activities, day trips, and community programmes.
A thrilling experience to remember
Describing the jump as an unforgettable experience, Still said the most exciting moment was stepping out of the aircraft and free-falling through the sky. Although the adventure lasted only a short time, he said the memories will stay with him forever.
He admitted he never imagined that he would be skydiving at the age of 91, but the experience exceeded his expectations and left him wanting even more adventures.

His enthusiasm has inspired many people, proving that pursuing new experiences does not have an age limit.
