Arete

Luke Aikins

His excellence is that he is a professional skydiver, base jumper, pilot, and aerial photographer. He achieved to land on land without a parachute or a wing suit. He achieved this by skydiving at age 12. Technology impacted this Arete experience because without the technology that was given to him, he wouldn't be able to jump from that high. All the technology helped know how safe things were and what were not. 

Reflection: This is a great achievement because he never gave up and he faced his fear. He would always challenged himself after he achieved something. I learned that we should face our fears because if we don't, we will never go far in life and we won't be able to achieve our goals.
