Why Skydiving in Antarctica Is Pure Madness

Why Skydiving in Antarctica Is Pure Madness

Published 2 months, 1 week ago
Description

Skydiving is already extreme, but doing it over Antarctica takes things to a whole new level! With freezing temperatures, brutal winds, and almost no room for error, it’s one of the most dangerous jumps on Earth. The air is so thin that skydivers need oxygen just to breathe as they freefall over endless ice. Plus, landing in the wrong spot could leave you stranded in one of the most unforgiving places on the planet. Only the bravest (or craziest) dare to take the leap! Would you ever try it, or is this madness best left to the pros?
