Bill Murray has long been known as one crazy comedian. Just last year, the former Saturday Night Live star was arrested for drunk driving in a golf cart.
Next month, he’s leaving land vehicles behind and heading for the skies. Murray agreed to parachute from a plane as part of a special appearance at the Chicago Air and Water Show.
A spokeswoman for the Mayor’s Office of Special Events says the 57-year-old actor is jumping on behalf of USO of Illinois.
The Chicago native will tandem jump with the Golden Knights skydiving team onto North Avenue Beach on August 15th.
It is the 50th anniversary of the popular show on Chicago’s lakefront.
Murray received an Oscar nomination for his role in Lost in Translation and is well known for his roles in Caddyshack and Groundhog Day.
Other celebrities with Chicago roots who are participating include Gary Sinise. He is scheduled to perform with his band Lt. Dan Band.
