Next month, Arron Dalby and Dave Oliver will be jumping out of a plane at 10,000 feet to raise money for men’s cancer charity Orchid.

I don’t know about you but I can only think of a couple better reasons to jump out of a perfectly good plane other than raising money for charity, like trying to show off for Megan Fox (of  Transformers fame).

The duo, Oliver a Paramedic and Dalby an Emergency Care Assistant, work for the Great Western Ambulance Service (GWAS) in Swindon, Wiltshire. They are over halfway to their goal of £1,000. In case you were wondering that is about $1,656.00 in U.S. currency.

Great job guys, keep up the great work!
