Peggy McAlpine, 104-Year-Old Paraglider

Her latest paraglide took place at the Kyrenia mountain range next to St Hilarion castle in Cyprus. She jumped with the same pilot who took her on the first record setting flight in 2007, when she claimed the Guinness Book record title at 100 years of age. McAlpine first got her taste for extreme sports at age 80, when family members persuaded her to go bungee jumping. Song: "Lady Writer" by Dire Straits
