IS ONE OF THOSE THINGS YOU
MAY PUT ON YOUR BUCKET LIST, WE
ARE TALKING ABOUT SKYDIVING.
THIS SPORT MEANS SO MUCH MORE
TO THIS MAN.
HE WILL MAKE HIS FINAL
PREPARATIONS.
Reporter: IF YOU WERE LIKE
MOST PEOPLE, THOUGHT ABOUT GOING
SKYDIVING SCARES YOU.
WHAT KIND OF MAN WANTS TO
ATTEMPT A WORLD RECORD OF 300
SKYDIVERS IN 24 HOURS?
THAT WOULD BE KEVIN BURKART.
WE GET THAT QUESTION A LOT,
ARE YOU AN ADRENALINE SEEKER?
IF YOU ASK MOST OF THEM OUT HERE
, THE SKYDIVERS, THEY WOULD SAY
YES.
I AM THOUSANDS OF SKY DIVES
INTO THIS SPORT.
AFTER THE FIRST 50 YOU DO NOT
HAVE THAT ADRENALINE RUSH.
Reporter: HE COMPARED
SKYDIVING TO GOLFING.
THE WORST THAT COULD HAPPEN
WITH GOLFING IS THAT YOU COULD
LOSE YOUR BALL. MODERN
SKYDIVING IS EXTREMELY SAFE.
YOUR BRIDE OUT TO THE DROP ZONE
IS MUCH MORE DANGEROUS THAN THE
SKYDIVING YOU DO OUT HERE.
I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE YOU.
Reporter: YOU SHOULD GO FOR
A SKYDIVE.
HE WILL MAKE HIS RECORD ATTEMPT
IN BALDWIN WISCONSIN.
IT WILL START AT 7 PM TUESDAY
AND FINISHED BY 7 PM WEDNESDAY,
IT IS FREE AND OPEN UP TO THE
PUBLIC.
I WILL LAND EVERY THREE
MINUTES.
I WILL LAND RIGHT IN FRONT OF
YOU 25 FEET AWAY.
Reporter: THAT IS RIGHT, HE
NEEDS TO KEEP THE PACE OF ABOUT
THREE MINUTES.
I USE A VERY FAST TURBINE
AIRCRAFT.
I AM ABLE TO FALL OUT AND BACK
DOWN TO EARTH IN A MINUTE AND A
HALF.
Reporter: HE WILL HAVE A
TEAM OF PARACHUTE PACKERS ON
THE GROUND AND PILOTS WILL BE
TAKING SHIFTS.
I HAVE THE EASY PART, I
JUST FALL OUT OF THE AIRPLANE
ALL DAY.
Reporter: THE ONLY THING IS
HE HAS THE USE OF ONLY ONE
ARMED.
IT WAS THE RESULT -- ONE ARM.
IT WAS THE RESULT OF AN
ACCIDENT.
WHAT MOTIVATES HIM?
IT IS HIS FATHER.
HIS FATHER HAS PARKINSON'S
DISEASE.
LIVING WITH THAT DISEASE IS
HARDER THEN DOING A ONE ARMED
SKYDIVE.
MY THOUGHT IS TO STAND OUT.
YOU HAVE TO TRY SOMETHING
UNIQUE AND DIFFERENT.
IT'S NOT ABOUT THE SKYDIVING,
IT IS ABOUT PARKINSON'S.
HOW DOES IT LOOK?
IT LOOKS GREAT FOR
SKYDIVING.
YOU LOVE THE FREE FALL.
PAPERS?
NO, DIAPERS -- TO GIVE OUT
DIAPERS?
NO, DIAPERS ARE NOT PART OF
THE SKYDIVING PROGRAM. [

Reporter: WOULD YOU THINK
ABOUT MY WIFE NOT WANTING TO
SKYDIVE?
HE WILL RAISE MORE THAN
$100,000.
IN OUR COMMUNITY IN
MINNESOTA, WHEN YOU GO OUT AND
ASKED FOR HELP, PEOPLE OPEN UP
THEIR WALLETS AND THEY ARE VERY
GENEROUS.
I AM FORTUNATE TO BE SURROUNDED
BY MANY GENEROUS PEOPLE.
Reporter: A MAN FALLING FROM AN
AIRPLANE.
