Fatemeh Akrami, 24, is the first Iranian woman to experience freefall wearing a wingsuit. She is also the first Iranian woman to become a professional skydiver.
Akrami was a champion gymnast, and although she tried other sports, nothing was as exciting as gymnastics - until a friend introduced her to skydiving. She fell in love with skydiving and earned her license from the US Parachute Association.
On Akrami's Instagram, all her photographs have one aspect in common: They all show her with a happy smile, whether she is falling from the sky or practicing a move.
