Woman Celebrates 100th Birthday By Jumping Out Of A Plane

It was reported
that former US President, George W. Bush
celebrated his 90th birthday by skydiving, but this
100 year old woman, Eleanor Cunningham of
Howes Cave, New York, raised the stake and has
him beat by making the big leap to mark her
centennial.
Cunningham kissed her 7-month-old great-
great-granddaughter before suiting up for
her 100th birthday jump Saturday at
Saratoga Skydiving in Gansevoort (GANZ'-
voort). It was her third jump, after taking up
the sport at age 90.
Cunningham lives with her granddaughter
in their Schoharie (skoh-HAYR'-ee) County
home in central New York. Her doctor signed
off on the skydiving expedition, saying her
health makes her more than capable of
doing what she loves.
Dean McDonald of Saratoga Skydiving says
Cunningham is his oldest jump partner yet.
