Does the thought of an 82-year-old grandmother being an indoor skydiving enthusiast baffle you? And what if we tell you that this skydiving-loving granma is also a wheelchair user?
Sounds hard to believe, right? See for yourself!
Glenys Mills – who hails from Derbyshire, UK – has beaten all odds to pursue the sport. Mills says it helps offset the chronic pain she had been suffering due to multiple sclerosis, which has also left her partially paralysed in the legs.
Her family has been supportive of her unusual hobby, which she started pursuing in 2015.
What’s more, the octogenarian has a history of trying out adventure sports, which rangers from hang-gliding in Canada to zip-lining in Europe. Whoa!
Now how can we not say that this 82-year-old wondewoman is not an inspiration to all of us?
