This is a guy who is scared of heights and doing a sky dive into the grand Canyon! And all for Parkinson's.

I wonder why it didn't say when he is doing this? How do we know this is really being put to good use?

I understand proceeds go to Parkinson's UK. I was asked to pass it on so I did so. I think the event is next month - May. The guy is genuine - and so am I. I will see and if I can find out actual date. Apparently it will be filmed also.

Further to above Riks (the sky dive guy) email address is

Rikesh Gohil <rikesh.gohil@bachmann-europe.co.uk.

No mention of actual date yet. He goes on holiday next week. Will try and find actual date. maybe you want to go there to make sure he does the jump.

AS a Parkie and a Park Ranger at the Grand Canyon I find this is an event that will not happen This would not be allowed and dangerous there is no place that would allow you to jump and only a plane would over the canyon would allow a jump but the down and up drafts would make it very dangerous to try jumping into the canyon so in my opinion it is an event that will not

happen

you're welcome hope this is just a stunt but thought I'd better make my comments just do not think the Park Service would allow it for any reason
