A 42-year-old US skydiver with more than 18,000 jumps makes history on Saturday when he becomes the first person to leap without a parachute and land in a net instead. After a two-minute freefall, Luke Aikins landed dead centre in the 100-by-100-foot (30-30 metre) net at the Big Sky movie ranch on the outskirts of Simi Valley. As cheers erupted, Aikins quickly climbed out, walked over and hugged his wife, Monica, who had been watching from the ground with their four-year-old son Subscribe to Guardian Wires ► The Guardian ► Watch Me Date ► Guardian Football ► Guardian Music ► Guardian Australia ► Guardian Tech ► Guardian Culture ► Guardian Food ►
