Tooele • Tell anyone that you’re about to go skydiving and the general reaction is somewhere along the lines of “are you crazy?” or “you must have a death wish” or “wow, an adrenaline junkie!”
“Honestly, when someone asks me if I’m an adrenaline junkie, it’s almost kind of offensive,” said Mackenzie Winkelstein, an experienced skydiver in American Fork and a member of a family full of skydivers.
Winkelstein says all of this with a hand on her pregnant belly; her other hand is in her husband’s, Aaron, whom she met through the sport.
“If you really think about it, if it weren’t for me introducing them, and skydiving, they wouldn’t be together,” Jordan Hadfield says, chuckling.
