Betty Bromage Flies at 97 to Break Record | Sheffield News

At 97, Betty Bromage is defying age and gravity—preparing for her sixth wing walk this August, aiming to break her own Guinness World Record as the oldest female wing walker. Inspired by a candy ad and reignited after a spinal injury left her paralyzed, she’s turned adversity into adventure, conquering zip lines, abseiling, and even looping the loop at 93. Now recovering from a stroke and fractured pelvis, she’s raising funds for a stroke unit while refusing to slow down. With near-blindness and tech struggles, she’s determined to soar again—because, as she says, she’d rather be flying than stuck in bed. Her next flight? August 4th at RFC Rendcomb Airfield.
