Terrifying moment daredevil skydiver becomes the first person to jump 25,000 feet out of a plane WITHOUT a parachute

Luke Aikins, 42, became the first skydiver to jump 25,000 feet from a plane without a parachute and land in a net for the Stride Gum Presents Heaven Sent stunt. Atkins, seen left during the two-minute fall, completed the record-breaking stunt on Saturday evening in Simi Valley, California.

He hit the 100-by-100-foot net (pictured right and inset) perfectly, quickly climbed out of it and walked over to hug his son four-year-old Logan and his skydiving wife Monica, who had been watching with other family members. He is pictured center embracing his son. After the jump he said on Facebook 'my vision was always proper preparation and that if you train right you can make anything happen'. The family own Skydive Kapowsin near Tacoma, Washington.
