It's a wonderful day in Maine -- in fact, nice enough for a parachute jump.
— George Bush (@GeorgeHWBush) June 12, 2014
After landing safely, Bush was helped into a wheelchair, to which he has been bound for the best part of the last year as he suffers from Parkinson’s Disease, and was applauded for his efforts by a number of onlookers present.
You can see the video of the jump in its entirety below (although you will have to put up with some annoying sounds in the background, but just in case there was any doubt that it was the man himself…

According to Mashable, yesterday was Bush senior’s eighth and probably last skydive as, two years ago, when he was 88, he went on record to say he had one more skydive in him.
We guess he waited until now because he knew the craic would be 90, wha?
