If you were lucky enough to catch the total solar eclipseOpens in a new tab on Monday morning, then you probably had a nice view of the action from an observatory, your driveway, or some other location here on good ol’ terra firma. WIRED’s social media manager Natalie DiBlasioOpens in a new tab, on the other hand, traveled more than 10,000 feet up into the air via helicopter and tandem jumped out with a trained skydiver to capture the moment from the sky. And the results are, like most of the other eclipse photos, quite stunning. (Although it was probably even more incredible for DiBlasio, who must’ve been decently high off adrenaline.)
We sent a reporter skydiving to cover the total eclipse today. Here’s the full, unedited video. pic.twitter.com/CMsEX6daCDOpens in a new tab
