Three skydivers made history over Mount Everest оn October 5th bу being the first people to parachute above the world's highest mountain. The parachutists from New Zealand, Britain and Canada trained for many years to make their jumps. Their plane flew about 150 metres above Everest's peak when they leapt out. They had to wear oxygen masks and parachutes that were larger than usual to help them in the thin air. The three were in free fall for 30 seconds before their parachutes opened and they glided down to land. А member of the jumpers' support team explained to the Reuters news agency: "They looked like tiny birds flying in the bluе sky as they jumped from the plane."
