Being old is tough – most senior citizens are happy to spend their days watching re-runs of the Golden Girls or lecturing their grandkids about the good ole days, with elbow-grease, written letters, and things of that nature.
But former US president George H.W. Bush, yeah, the senior one, decided to celebrate his 90th birthday by jumping out of a helicopter.
It was all pretty graceful and beautiful to see him falling through the air, but his face-plant into the ground at the end, not helped by his assistant-jumper, put a little bit of worry into the onlookers and a smile on our faces.
He turned out OK.
