Prince Harry wants to do a free-fall parachute jump


Prince Harry wants to complete a high altitude free-fall parachute jump.

The 29-year-old royal – who has been visiting Brazil and Chile as part of his tour of South America – is reported to have revealed his plans to complete the dangerous stunt to dignitaries in Chile last week.

The helicopter pilot – who admitted he had completed 10,000ft fixed level jumps during his military training – is keen to challenge himself with a huge 35,000ft free-fall jump, reports the Mirror.co.uk.

The active royal heir was also spotted getting stuck in to a number of physical activities during a visit to The Minas Tennis Club in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, last week where the British Olympics team will complete their athletic training ahead of the 2016 sporting event.

Harry chatted with Brazilian swimmer Cesar Cielo, who has three Olympic medals to his name, including a gold from the 2008 Beijing Games.

He then put his judo moves to the test in front of all the athletes, played goalie in a soccer match and shot a few baskets during a friendly game of basketball.

The fun-loving royal was also responsible for kicking off a local swimming race by pressing a starter button and was tasked with handing out the medals after the event.
