Is there anything that Lewis Hamilton cannot do? It’s a question many of us have asked multiple times. Equalling Michael Schumacher’s seven world titles? Check. Fashion industry? The man is a fashion icon. Water sports? His former physiotherapist Angela Cullen bowed down to Hamilton for his surfing skills. As the holiday season is in full flow, the seven-time champ relives one of his high-speed skills again, but with Zak Brown’s latest ally. 

Lewis Hamilton is no stranger to skydiving. The Briton has been skydiving all by himself for as long as we can remember. However, it isn’t something that he was born with. Just like his driving, with perseverance, Hamilton seems to have gotten better with every dive he takes from the skies. The Mercedes driver was back at it again during the off-season after another underwhelming year. Perhaps letting off a little pent-up frustration as he jumped from the plane.

Red Bull is no stranger to doing crazy stuff like a pitstop in zero gravity. To do something just as daredevil-ish, Lewis Hamilton partnered with Zak Brown & Co.’s latest ally – who just so happened to be one of his and Mercedes’ allies until this season. McLaren signed Monster Energy soon after the 2023 F1 season ended. The energy drink company left Mercedes’ side and joined the rival team. However, Hamilton has a partnership with Monster that extends beyond his team. Monster even has a flavor by Lewis Hamilton’s name. 

Both Lewis Hamilton and Monster’s social media pages posted videos of the Briton’s sky-high shenanigans. While Hamilton uploaded a video where it was the POV of the camera attached to his wrist, Monster uploaded more of a third-person perspective of the skydive. Monster’s version of the video shows the seven-time champ getting out of a Mercedes 280 CE and preparing for the dive. He’s then seen walking towards the plane and sitting on the edge, enjoying the wind as the plane flies toward the drop spot.

The video concludes with Hamilton performing some stunts mid-air, including front rolls. The LH Army went into a frenzy after witnessing the skydive. Let’s see what they had to say.

Lewis Hamilton’s “unbelievable” feat leaves fans mind-blown

The LH Army was blown away by the Briton’s skydive in collaboration with Monster Energy. They couldn’t believe their eyes after seeing Hamilton flawlessly execute a skydive himself. Many commented how, just like Hamilton is always flying high with his performances in an F1 car, he’s doing the same while skydiving. And for those who couldn’t believe their eyes reacted with the word “unbelievable.” Let’s see what the reactions were like. 

Many brought Hamilton and his GOAT stature into the conversation as they drolled over Hamilton’s skydiving.

Some even took notice of the vintage Mercedes that Lewis Hamilton got out of at the start of the video. Not going to lie, we were equally awestruck by the 280.

F1 is like an addiction. We fans live for the high-speed action at all times, even more so now that the off-season is here. One fan mentioned how Lewis deployed the parachute a bit early and lost time, referencing a driver braking early into a corner.
