Daredevil set to attempt highest jump without parachute

Renowned skydiver Luke Aikins is set to attempt a world record in jumping out of a plane at 25,000 feet and landing without a parachute. The 42-year-old has been jumping for 26 years and has completed 18,000 jumps. Aikens says this is something he's been training for his whole life...variables like the wind could cause a bad outcome. The stunt is scheduled to be shown live on Fox in a one hour special on July 30th in an event called 'Stride Gum Presents Heaven Sent'.
