In February, a company called Yes Theory posted a video on YouTube titled: “Will Smith… We challenge you.”
Will Smith takes on Yes Theory’s challenge of bungee jumping from a helicopter into the Grand Canyon. Smith had every detail of the jump filmed, from the moments leading up to his jump in the helicopter to the reactions of the anxious onlookers on the ground below. Smith’s wife Jada Pinkett Smith, his children Trey, Jaden and Willow Smith and his close friend and former Fresh Prince co-star Alfonso Ribeiro were among the spectators watching his every move. Smith’s decision to go bungee jumping for his 50th birthday all began with a simple challenge that was put forward to the actor earlier this year.
