New York woman celebrates 100th birthday with sky dive

Would you celebrate your 100th birthday with parachute jump? Eleanor Cunningham of Howes Cave, New York, kissed her 7-month-old great-great-granddaughter before suiting up for her 100th birthday jump Saturday at Saratoga Skydiving in Gansevoort. It was her third jump, after taking up the sport at age 90. Cunningham’s doctor signed off on the skydiving expedition, saying her health makes her more than capable of doing what she loves. Dean McDonald of Saratoga Skydiving says Cunningham is his oldest jump partner yet.
