Skydiver will work with a net, but no parachute

He's made 18,000 parachute jumps, helped train some of the world's most elite skydivers, and did some stunts for Iron Man 3. But the plunge that Luke Aikins knows he'll be remembered for is the one he'll make without a parachute or wingsuit.

Or anything, really, other than the clothes he'll be wearing when he jumps out of an airplane at 7,600 meters this weekend, attempting to become the first person to land safely on the ground in a net.

The Fox television network will broadcast the two-minute jump live on Saturday.
