EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back in time to the New York World's Fair of 1939, specifically to the iconic Parachute Jump attraction located at Flushing Meadows-Corona Park in Queens, New York. The Parachute Jump, standing tall at 200 feet, was one of the most thrilling and daring rides at the fair, attracting thousands of visitors from all over the United States and beyond. The Parachute Jump, reminiscent of a steeplechase, was inspired by the popular sport of parachute jumping that had gained immense popularity during the 1920s and 1930s. Riders would board a gondola that would lift them to the top of the tower, from where they would leap out, free-falling for a few seconds before their parachutes opened, gently bringing them back to the ground. This photograph captures the essence of the excitement and thrill that the Parachute Jump offered to its riders. With the New York City skyline in the background, the tower stands out as a beacon of entertainment and adventure. The photograph also provides a glimpse into the historical significance of the New York World's Fair, which showcased the latest innovations and advancements in technology, science, and culture. The Parachute Jump at the New York World's Fair of 1939 remains an iconic symbol of American entertainment and a testament to the daring spirit of the era. This photograph is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of amusement parks, American culture, or the New York World's Fair.
