NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- The U.S. Navy’s “Leap Frogs” parachute team skydived into Central Park on Thursday evening in a stunning show over Manhattan.
The team jumped from a plane and parachuted onto the Great Lawn around 6 p.m. as crowds watched below.
Some members unfurled a U.S. flag as they performed aerial maneuvers with colorful smoke streaming behind them.
The Leap Frogs are set to perform at Liberty State Park in Jersey City on Saturday and in Lido Beach on Long Island on Monday, according to their schedule.
