At Skydive Spain, we have always believed that skydiving is much more than just a sport: it is a lesson in personal growth, discipline and teamwork. That is why we are supporting the project “Skydiving on Everest: A Jump Against Bullying”
The project is led by Francisco “Pancho” Campo, a skydiver on a mission: to make a skydive in the Everest region to raise awareness of a problem that affects thousands of children and teenagers every day – bullying. The initiative is backed by the AEPAE (Spanish Association for the Prevention of School Bullying) and The Planet Future Foundation, and combines extreme sport, education and solidarity in a single challenge.
The expedition involves a HALO jump from approximately 7,500 metres above Everest, an operation that demands extraordinary technical and physical preparation. Here at Skydive Spain, we are supporting Pancho as the drop zone where he will prepare for this challenge.
This is not just a sporting feat at high altitude. Behind the jump lies a message that we want to take to schools, universities, sports clubs and businesses: to combat bullying, we need courage, preparation and, above all, we must not look the other way.
At Skydive Spain, we share the values driving this project and know that this effort can inspire many people, both within and outside the world of skydiving.
This is not just a jump from the highest mountains on the planet. It is a way of saying, loud and clear, that
This isn’t just a jump from the highest mountains on the planet. It’s a way of saying, loud and clear, that bullying has no place in our classrooms, and that even from the sky, you can send a message that reaches the ground.
We encourage anyone to get involved and contribute to this project via this link.
