Dorothy Hoffner<\/strong>, the 104-year-old Chicago woman who set the record for the oldest tandem skydive, died in her sleep just days after the monumental jump.<\/p>\n

Hoffner made worldwide news just 10 days ago on October 1, when she became the oldest living person to jump out of a plane … when she went skydiving at Skydive Chicago.<\/p>\n

The record is still being confirmed by Guinness, but Dorothy toppled the previous record held by a 103-year-old Swedish woman who jumped in 2022.<\/p>\n

Youngster.<\/p>\n

As far as the timing, it appears to be nothing more than a coincidence. Dorothy died in her sleep.<\/p>\n

In fact, Hoffner was over the moon after the jump, telling local media … \u201cSkydiving is a wonderful experience, and it\u2019s nothing to be afraid of. Just do it!\u201d<\/p>\n

Skydive Chicago even released a statement on Dorothy’s passing … and they believe there’s a lesson to be learned here about living.<\/p>\n

\"dorothy<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are deeply saddened by Dorothy\u2019s passing, and feel honored to have been part of making her world record skydive a reality,\u201d the company said.<\/p>\n

\u201cSkydiving is an activity that many of us safely tuck away in our bucket lists. But Dorothy reminds us that it\u2019s never too late to take the thrill of a lifetime.\u201d<\/p>\n
