Google celebrates world’s first parachute jump with a Doodle game
Back on Oct. 22, 1797, a Frenchman called Andrew Garnerin became the first person known to jump with a parachute. Wouldn't he be proud to know his legacy is memorialized, 216 years later, by a keyboard-powered interactive Doodle from the world's largest search engine?
The animated Doodle depicts the event and even lets you steer the parachute left or right with the arrow keys, so no two "jumps" are the same.
Let's have some fun 🙂
