"Live life with gusto," says war verteran.
"All you young guys - try things." That's the advice from 92-year-old Jack Steffen.
The Florida man and World War Two veteran went skydiving for his birthday and says he loved it, describing the free-fall from 13,000 feet as "like you're floating, like on a cloud. It's just serene."
Whenfriends had asked why he was doing it he told them: "Because it sounds exciting, let's try it."
"People should try that more often. Live life with gusto. Really, yea, it's fun. Give you something to look forward to. Do things. Makes life interesting. All you young guys - try things," he told AP.
