Viola Davis is fearless at 53! Oscar winner goes skydiving in Hawaii… leaving her celeb friends in awe

Viola Davis is living her best life at 53.

The Academy Award winner went thrill chasing as she jumped out of a plane in Hawaii on Wednesday.

The icon’s heart-pumping adventure was recorded by the team at Big Island Gravity, who Davis chose to go tandem with at the oceanfront Upolu Airport in Hawi.

She excitedly reflected on the 12,000 ft jump saying, ‘So….I jumped out of a plane. Yup. I did it. 12,000 ft and 100mph drop. It was awesome and the ultimate exercise in letting go, tackling my fears and freedom. #GladIDidntWearAWig #WalkingInto2019WithASword #ForgiveMeForMyCussWordsAndJackedUpHair’

Not quite ready: All jokes aside, Davis did admit she was feeling anxious prior to the leap of faith

Prepared for the worst: In the plane’s cockpit, pre-jump, viola said, ‘I’m ready. I’m alive. My will is done — signed, sealed, delivered, and witnesses. As long as you’re not nervous, I’m fine!’
