Flying Navy Seal Soars A World Record of 18 miles in a wing-suit
Rating: ****
Not all people would want to jump out of a plane 36,000 ft in the air with a wing-suit to raise awareness for a cause. But Andy was up for this crazy job.
The article is about Former Navy SEAL, Andy Strumpf, beating a world record distance from free falling with a wing-suit. He ended up travelling a total distance of 17.8 miles, and had to endure a 150-degree temperature swing in the process. He did all of this because he wanted to raise awareness, and raise money for the Navy SEAL Foundation.
In my life, I've always really wanted to experience free falling, and being in the military. This article has motivated me even more to try out both of these goals. Seeing his passion and his motivation is extremely inspiring, mainly because we share the same interests.
I recommend using your passion towards a good cause, like what Andy did.
