SUFFOLK, Va. – CNN journalist Anderson Cooper jumped out of a plane for the very first time Saturday at Skydive Suffolk.

Cooper was in town for a fundraising event for Spike’s K-9 Fund.

Spikes K9 Fund is a local charity that provides bullet proof vests for local police dogs.

Cooper is a big contributor to the charity, and previously donated his speaking fee from a Norfolk event at Chrysler Hall.
