Disney starlet Mandy Moore literally dropped into the Illawarra on Saturday.In Australia to promote her new film - the Rapunzel-inspired animated movie Tangled - Moore and co-star Zachary Levi, of the TV series Chuck, jumped from 4300m above Wollongong, landing in Stuart Park near North Wollongong Beach."She's very, very nice - she's very friendly and very warm," Skydive the Beach marketing co-ordinator Courtney Butler said of Moore."We met them after they landed at Stuart Park, and they were completely pumped up from their skydive. They actually commented that it was the best one they'd ever done." Both Moore and Levi were skydiving for the third time."They had brilliant weather on the day... and they had beautiful views over Wollongong," Ms Butler said. "We were pretty chuffed with that."The pair posted about the dive on Twitter."This was us ... before we boarded a plane ... that we jumped out of," Levi tweeted on the day, along with a picture.Moore tweeted the next day: "Honestly, still feeling the effects of jumping from 15k [15,000 feet] yesterday. And so proud of my fellow brave comrades! Ready to go again, NOW!!!"
