The world’s oldest tandem jumper of all time has landed happily outside Motala. As early as 2019, Ruth became the world’s oldest jumper – a record that was broken in 2020 by the American Kathryn Hodges. That message made Rut Larsson start planning to go up in the air once more. On Sunday, Mother’s Day, it was time. Together with Joackim Johansson from Linköping’s parachute club, Rut Larsson completed the second tandem jump of her life. After landing, a satisfied 103-year-old was seen slowly descending from the sky. See the world’s oldest tandem jumper in the player above.
