Wayne Rooney takes on a fear of heights by completing a skydiving challenge for the launch episode of I’m A Celebrity, alongside Paralympian Ade Adepitan. Multiple outlets describe the stunt as part of the show’s first set of jungle challenges.
The coverage focuses on Rooney overcoming past reluctance around height-related activities. Several reports point out that he had previously booked to jump from a helicopter multiple times before backing out at the last minute, framing the skydiving as a major personal step. Other items also situate the moment within the broader cast for the season, mentioning additional celebrities who join the programme in the jungle.
While all sources largely align on the same event—Rooney skydiving and facing his fear—their emphasis varies between the “first look” presentation and more general descriptions of the filming and challenge setup.
