During his three-and-a-half-minute descent, he risked a spin that would have killed him but managed a perfect landing in the Palm Drop Zone at the Skydive Dubai Club.

After the successful jump, he explained the experience as “awesome, amazing and emotional”.

He added “I had to keep my body really straight, as even a little input from my hips or turning left or right could make the parachute turn”.
