A 98-year-old British woman, Harry Hisman, flew on the wing of a biplane, earning a spot in the Guinness World Records.

During the flight, she climbed to an altitude of 1,000 meters and stayed airborne for six minutes, secured with safety belts and leaning on a special support.

With this daring feat, she raised thousands of dollars for a children's cancer charity.

Hisman lives in a nursing home and realized her childhood dream through the facility's wish fulfillment program.

Physiotherapists helped her prepare, training her to climb stairs independently—a skill she lacked just a year earlier.
