500 Jumps in 24 Hours?Posted Friday, October 24, 2003On Veteran's Day, November 11th 2003, Jay Stokes will make more than 500 jumps in a 24 hour period. This World Record setting event is being held to raise funds for the Special Olympics and Special Operations Warrior Foundation. Both organizations have terrific causes and all of us at Mostjumps.com hope you will be a part of this record setting event either by making a pledge or becoming a corporate sponsor.
Jay has made three World Record attempts. All three record attempts were successful for their respective time frames. The first record was done to see what could be physically and mentally accomplished. The first record was eclipsed by Cheryl Sterns in November 1995 so the second time was to regain the record. The third attempt was to raise awareness of the Special Olympics and proceeds from the fund raising benefited the local area Special Olympics.
