Matt Kemp-Smith of Lancing, West Sussex, had to keep his cool on a very hot day at GoSkydive.

Having jumped from 15,000ft as part of his tandem skydive, Matt had a final surprise for his girlfriend Rebecca Burgess when she landed just after him.

Moments before under the parachute, Matt said his freefall experience was “unreal”. Matt then took controls of the parachute for a few minutes under the guidance of Tandem Instructor Chris Griffin before they landed.

Matt then waited for girlfriend Rebecca. He walked over and popped the question “I’ve got a question to ask you, will you marry me”. She said “yes!” Congratulations to Matt and Rebecca.
