Luke Aikins

Luke Aikins  

1.The excellence Luke Aikins achieved was to be the first person to dive from mid-tropospheric and landed safely without a parachute or a wingsuit and is the second person to land without a parachute.
2.This excellence was achieved the creation of 100 by 100 foot net that was made of spectra which is a high-density polyethylene cord which also had four compressed air cylinders designed to gently slow him down after impact.
3.Technology impacted this arete experience because it made this jump a successful one because without it he couldn't have landed safely or even been up in the air to start his dive.

5.Reflection:The achievement is something that many people would call crazy mainly because who would just decide to just dive 25,000 feet of the ground without any equipment to slow him down.This is a something many skydivers have tried to accomplish but couldn't until Luke Aikins came along and did just that.This achievement had taught me that anything in this world can be accomplished no matter how impossible it seem all you need is to believe in yourself and the impossible will now be the possible.
