For some people, skydiving is a once-in-a-lifetime exhilarating experience. For others, it’s the epitome of doom. But for Lucy Guo, co-founder of Scale AI and CEO of Passes, free-falling from 10,000 feet up is just one of her many thrilling hobbies—despite being scared of heights.
The entrepreneur is such an adventure-seeker that she obtained her skydiving license after a seven-day campout at a drop zone, completing 25 jumps. In total, Guo has jumped out of a plane about 40 times—once landing a mile off-course in a field of cows—and one day hopes to skydive Mount Everest.
