A California great-grandmother and cancer survivor celebrated her 90th birthday this month by skydiving from 13,000 feet above the ground.
Shirley Tuter, of Dunnigan, chose to embrace her thrill-seeking side to mark her ninth decade on Earth and crossed off the bucket-list item on Aug. 16.
The new nonagenarian jumped from the plane attached to a professional skydiver with the company SkyDance SkyDiving out of Yolo County Airport.
Tuter was completely calm before the big jump — even when a staffer pointed out the “Danger” warning scrawled across the gear she suited up in.
“I’m a dangerous broad,” she said with a smile in a clip filmed by the skydiving company and released Monday.
Tuter blew a kiss to the camera and gave a thumbs-up before taking the hair-raising plunge.
She touched down to cheers from her family members and was immediately cracking jokes.
“It was fun. I may never walk again,” she said with a chuckle.
