Aikins said he was nervous before this jump. “We're talking about jumping without a parachute,” he told reporters. "I take that very (serious). It's not a joke.” Aikins prepared for two years (make) the jump. Three skydivers with parachutes made the jump with him. They recorded the event with a video and carried the (equip) that Aikins needed, like an oxygen mask. Aikins rolled in the air just moments before he hit the net so as to land on his back. The sky-diver did not move for several seconds as the net was lowered to the ground. Then, Aikins stood, waved his arms and hugged his wife.
