Aussie Lads Take Homeless Man For A Skydive Just To Put A Smile On His Face

It's nice to be nice to others. So these lads thought they'd treat a stranger to make his day.

Two Aussie lads have made a homeless man's day after taking him on an impromptu skydive.

Australian TikTok duo Misfit Minds - or Seb and Will - decided they wanted to test out how much trust you could build with a stranger by asking someone they didn't know to go skydiving with them.

That's when Dion appeared.

Will went for it and asked: "Weird question, do you want to go skydiving with us?"

The two lads were fobbed off at first, but Dion soon came back with a massive smile on his face.

"Just thinking about it, and I'd f**king love to go skydiving," he said. "I can't think of anything better to do, really."

The lads explained the whole day would be covered by them and that's when Dion revealed he was homeless.

They also asked Dion if he had ever wanted to do it before.

"F**k yeah. Only for the last 20 years," he said. "I've done lots and lots of crazy s**t before, but I've never jumped out of a plane."

The three of them hopped in a car and were off to Jurien Bay, Western Australia, to hurl themselves out of a plane.

Judging by the look on their faces as they jumped out, it'll be an experience none of them will ever forget.

"That was, by far, the most brilliant thing I've ever done before," Dion said on the video, with the West Australian coast glittering behind him.

Dion declared 'it was so good' once they were safely back on the ground, with an ear-to-ear grin.

"That is the most fun I have ever had in my entire life," he added.

At the end of the clip, the two lads gave their own testimony to the camera.

"That was sick," Seb said.

Will replied: "That was nuts. One of the best days of my life."

The video has blown up on social media and has been viewed more than four million times on TikTok.

Social media users praised the lads for their kindness to Dion.

One user said: "You literally just made this man’s life, respect for blessing people like this man."

Another added: "This is so wholesome, you picked the perfect person to take."

A third chipped in with: "Amazing!! But please start a go fund me, the impact you can have is MASSIVE."

The lads revealed they still keep in touch with Dion. So it looks like they've made a new friend for life.
