American actor, comedian, rapper and songwriter, Will Smith, celebrated his 50th birthday on Tuesday by bungee jumping from a helicopter into the Grand Canyon.

His wife, Jada Pinkett Smith and kids Jaden, Willow and Trey and friends were there to witness the 50-year-old actor mark the milestone in a very unique and extraordinary fashion.

Will shared the moment on his YouTube channel and once he’d made the jump but was still dangling he said: “It goes from pure terror to pure bliss.”

Jada Pinkett was full of praises for her husband and gushed about how beautiful he looked when he finally made the leap.

In an Instagram post, she wrote,

“Congrats @willsmith! You did it! But no more! @shereezampino almost had a Heart Attack!”

Hanging off the edge of the helicopter, Will took a little sneak peek down the canyon and shook his head, shouting: “Never look down!”

But once he’d taken the plunge he seemed to have forgotten his fear.

Meanwhile, once he made it on the crash mat and was detached from the helicopter his family and friends looked relieved.
