Flying in a Vietnam-Era Huey at about 10,000 feet, the team deployed a 3,200-square-foot American flag — nearly twice the size of the Libyan flag.
Denman said no one had attempted to fly a flag of this size before, creating “a lot of unknowns” and making jump records that were “pretty scary.”
According to the team, the jump was confirmed and will be submitted to the World Book of World Records.

Only the most experienced members of the team carry the spit flag because of the technical requirements and the risk involved.
Denman noted that the size and weight of the flag, which came in at 170 pounds, presented “a lot of external risks to reduce,” adding that the team should account for the risks that have never met the risks.
He also put the technical team for making the effort possible, he said, “It was my idea, but Steve Curtis did a great job.

Denman, Isaacman and Shehy participated in the jump but did not control the flag itself. The ground team supports the operation, and all personnel and equipment are safely placed.
Sheehy said he viewed the effort as a team and Image accomplishment.
“I was honored to be a part of an amazing group of veterans, world icons, and some of the best Skydivers in the world who brought back a world record flight back to the United States,” he said. “There’s no question about it: This document belongs on American soil, and it places us alongside this great group of Patriots in a fitting way to kick off next year’s 250th anniversary of America.”
