1. Luke Aikins is a professional skydiver, BASE jumper, pilot and aerial photographer. He holds records such as highest jump without a parachute.

2. Aikins has been skydiving since he was 12 so he has had a lot of times to prepare for his record breaking achievements.

3. There is a lot that goes into skydiving. There needs to be constant contact for the records Aikins broke. They needed to be talking in real time so that he would be safe.

4. I learned from this research that you can make great achievements no matter what your age is. Luke was already older when he set his record and he was still able to do it. It shows that patience is a good quality to have when seeking excellence. I also learned that when you have a set goal you can achieve anything.

Internet

The internet is a global system used to connect people from all over the world. It is very helpful in the way that people know what is happening instead of having to wait months to find out about an even that has happened on the other side of the world. It serves all types of networks that may need it. It impacts everyonein a good and bad way because we can now learn about different cultures from a first hand source. However it can be dangerous at times to put yourself on the internet because you don't know who will come across your personal information or what they will do with it. In my opinion the internet is a great innovation because of all of the things I have learned about the world.
