Bangladesh has achieved a new world record as 54 paratroopers performed a synchronized free-fall jump carrying national flags over Tejgaon Old Airport in Dhaka on Tuesday. The event, marking the 54th anniversary of the country’s independence, was organized by the Armed Forces and attended by Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus as the chief guest. The jump from nearly 12,000 feet symbolized each year of independence, creating the world’s largest flag-bearing parachuting display.
The team, named “Team Bangladesh,” included 46 army, 5 navy, and 2 air force personnel, along with BIDA Executive Chairman Chowdhury Ashiq Mahmud Bin Harun. The final six paratroopers honored Bangladeshi peacekeepers killed in Sudan by carrying their names. Thousands of spectators gathered from early morning to witness the historic moment amid tight security. The event also featured a joint fly-past by the three services and a Victory Day band show.
Officials said the record highlights Bangladesh’s growing stature in international peacekeeping and military professionalism. Similar celebrations took place nationwide, with naval ships and military museums opened to the public.
