Skydivers Wing It to Break World Record

Sixty-one skydivers swooped into the record books in Skydive Perris when they created a stunning diamond formation high above the skies of southern Los Angeles. The group, consisting of skydivers from the United States, Canada, Britain, Australia, Russia, Poland, South Africa and Israel, dropped from three planes, each wearing a wingsuit and many wearing head and body cameras to capture the record-breaking attempt on video.

The previous record of 50 skydivers was set only a couple of hours earlier that day at the same location. Credit: YouTube/Michael Watanabe
