Do you suppose that at the age of 90 you will be able to jump out of the airplane? Well, Antioch resident Royal Yocum turned 90 he did. This adventure seems not enough for the adventurer. For his 91st birthday he plans to have his next birthday thrill that is Moaning Cavern's zip lines.
According to the PRWEB, Yocum, his 83 year old girlfriend, Mary Erickson, and four other family members arrived Saturday morning at Moaning Cavern Park and chose a 3 Zip Combo in which the 3rd zip could be done Super Style. This more aerodynamic zip is done in a horizontal position, face down. The result is an average 50 MPH zip speed, compared with the 40 MPH average speed achieved in the regular seated position.
Yocum says: "I'm getting to the point where I just love wild things now, I don't know why."
Six members of the group raced in the seated position, then 4 of them chose to continue on to Super Style. According to Yocum’s evaluations: "I thought it was the most wonderful thing I've ever done. The (Super Style) was my favorite because you didn't have to hold on to anything and your arms were free. It was like flying."
The next extraordinary thrill for Royal Yocum seems to be the Goodyear Blimp.
