"He had a lot of energy when he finished – there were no mishaps. It was perfect..."
Source: Nancy Gruttman-Tyler, a retired skydiver present when, ten years ago, Skydiver Pat Moore completed an accomplishment for his 80th birthday, raising $20,000 for the Skydiving museum with Team80. For that 2011 attempt, Team80 supported Moore with 50 riggers, cameramen, a pilot, and medical personnel on standby. A constant stream of parachute packing and aircraft prep took place over the course of 6 ½ hours, until he made his 81st jump with a celebratory American flag. Pat will attempt 9 more jumps on his 90th birthday celebration, on November 20th.
