Campbell, a 94-year-old woman from Williamsport, Penn., celebrated her recent birthday by jumping out of a plane alongside her granddaughter and great-granddaughter.

I'll do it again," she told WNEP.Campbell, as well as her granddaughter Sara Schuelke and great-granddaughter Jess Fox, all jumped in tandem with skydiving instructors with the “Above the Poconos Skydivers” group above the Hazleton Regional Airport in Hazleton, Penn.
