Describing the experience, Reddy explained, “I had no fear. I felt the adrenalin rush, took a deep breath and dived with my trademark thumbs up sign. It was extremely chilly and windy and for the first 60 seconds, it was a free fall at a speed of over 200 kmph.” Reddy who is into fitness and extreme sports, has also indulged in rock climbing, scuba diving and white water rafting.
