  • 15/09/2022

Former Deputy Prime Minister Paula Bennett has jumped off Auckland's Sky Tower as a part of the 'Drop your boss' campaign.

The campaign was created by The Graham Dingle Foundation, a child and youth charity which supports children overcoming life's obstacles.

Bennett was on AM this morning, where she jumped off the tower live on-air.

When asked why she had agreed to do it she said: "You don't want to be a no person all your life, you gotta leap in there."

As she prepared to jump, Bennett let out an "oh crikey" before falling backwards off the Skytower.
