[ # ] Will Smith will bungee jump out of a helicopter on his birthday!
July 27th, 2018 under Jennifer Garner, Will Smith, YouTube


On September 25th, Will Smith is going to turn the big 5-0! What is he going to do to make it unforgettable? He is going to bungee jump, out of a helicopter, over the Grand Canyon, live on YouTube. Why? Not because he is crazy, although it sounds like he is, but because he is doing it for charity.

If all goes well, he will have a great story to tell everyone for the rest of his life. If it does not go well, well then he does not have a rest of a life to tell the story. But I am sure everyone is going to make sure it is very safe for him. They don’t want the man in black to become the man is splat.

It is that risk that is going to have us glued to our computer screens to see what happens during Will Smith: The Jump. Will Will Smith live to see 51?

I just hope there is a video before he jumps of Jada Pinkett Smith ripping him a new one for doing this. How hot would that be? I think that would get more views than the jump itself.
