Google Street View decided to jump out of a plane over a coastal New Zealand national park. And lucky for us,USA we get to experience the skydiving trip without having to sign any waivers.
In late December, a certified Google Street View photographer teamed up with New Zealand skydive operator Skydive Abel Tasman. Together, they captured the mountainous region of the South Island and the sun-soaked beaches and glimmering ocean.

Here's your chance to skydive in what is a pretty stunning part of the world. And you don't even have to leave your computer. Just "travel" along with the plan along different "floors" of the map starting on a field, soaring above the awe-inspiring peaks and coastline before returning back to safety.
The jump, shot over the course of a few days, was also captured in a 360-degree video.
