Sky High Career

What’s your idea of a dream job? Most people would love to do their favourite hobby or sport as a job. That’s exactly what Niklas Daniel does. He combines his passion for skydiving with his work. Niklas is a skydiving aerial photographer. He earns a good wage and does his favourite sport at the same time. Niklas jumps from planes with a camera he attaches to his helmet and takes some amazing photographs. He places the camera on his head so he can use his hands to control his fall. He actually takes a photo by blowing into a tube which activates his camera. He wears special sunglasses to show him where his camera is pointing.

This job may sound thrilling and fun but it’s not easy. Job skills include knowing how to take great photos and being an expert at skydiving. Niklas has years of training as a skydiver. He can control himself well as he flies in the air. There are additional risks and difficulties that come with carrying the camera equipment that only very experienced skydivers, like Niklas, can handle. So what does he take pictures of? He usually photographs other skydivers and skydiver teams. Sometimes Niklas wears a special suit with wings that allows him to control how fast he falls. This way he can stay close to the other divers and take great shots.

It’s not the danger or risk that attracts Niklas to skydiving. Niklas loves skydiving because, unlike other sports, it gives him absolute freedom to move in any direction. This freedom of movement and the ability to take pictures results in some very interesting and creative work. There are no limits to what he can create and do. For Niklas the sky is the limit!

Task 3. Decide if the following sentences are true or false.

1. Niklas makes little money as a photographer.

2. Niklas controls himself in the air with his legs.

3. Niklas uses a tube to see the images in his camera.

4. Camera equipment can create problems for a skydiver.

5. Most of Niklas'photographs are of people.

6. Niklas uses wings to change his speed in the air.

7. Niklas enjoys skydiving because it's dangerous.
