To mark her 80th birthday, Laverne Everett went skydiving, but the tandem jump went horribly wrong and video of the terrifying experience has gone viral.
Now, Everett is talking about the frightening experience shown on her keepsake video, where she appears to have been pushed out of the aircraft after seemingly being reluctant, and then completely slips out of her upper harness.
In the video, which was shot during the dive last year, Everett is shown clinging to her instructor for dear life while they plunge to earth from 13,000 feet, traveling at 125 miles per hour. Her experience is only now creating waves because her sister recently posted it online as a way to share the experience with out-of-state family members.
"I just held on," Everett said, laughing, in a Friday interview with KOVR TV in Sacramento, Calif., in which she described plunging to the earth while nearly falling out of her harness.
