A British former paratrooper has dropped 40 metres from a helicopter into the sea in an attempt to break the world record for jumping without a parachute.
John Bream was taken to hospital to be examined following the leap after he landed in the water awkwardly and briefly fell unconscious.
The 34-year-old from Havant, Hampshire, was thought to have hit the water at about 80mph off Hayling Island on Monday after falling the equivalent of nine storeys.
