Spain's future Queen, Princess Leonor, jumped out of a plane as she completed a parachute training course as part of her military education.

Video released by the Spanish royal household on Tuesday (2 June) showed the 20-year-old heir to the throne completing a course at the Mendez Parada Military Parachuting School at Alcantarilla air base in Murcia.

Footage shows Leonor going down a zipline wearing parachute gear before completing the jump.

The princess trained to carry out automatic parachute jumps, the same qualification undertaken by personnel across Spain’s armed forces.
