Dame Jacqueline has touched on Beaker as an adult through the eyes of the character's daughter Jess in her children's books My Mum Tracy Beaker and The Beaker Girls.
The footage, which showed Mr Peng holding onto the glider's controls with his face and much of his body covered in ice crystals, has since been questioned by US broadcaster NBC.NBC said the logo of an artificial intelligence company had been cropped out of the footage.
The BBC has been unable to independently verify the video, but the incident was widely reported in China, with Mr Peng giving an interview to journalists."It was terrifying... Everything was white. I couldn't see any direction. Without the compass, I wouldn't have known which way I was going. I thought I was flying straight, but in reality, I was spinning," he told China Media Group.Mr Peng said he narrowly survived death as oxygen is thin at that altitude - slightly lower than the 8,849m peak of Mount Everest. Temperatures can also fall to -40C.
"I wanted to come down quickly, but I just couldn't. I was lifted higher and higher until I was inside the cloud," he said.Mr Peng, who has been paragliding for four and a half years, said he might have lost consciousness during his descent.
As a result of the footage, Mr Peng has been suspended for six months because the flight was unauthorised, state-run Global Times reported. Officials are also investigating the incident.
Could India's decades-long jungle insurgency finally be approaching its end?Climate change is causing oceans to warm around the globe and is making marine heatwaves like this one more likely.
"It's super intense at the moment. The marine heatwave has really soared this week," says Dr Ségolène Berthou at the Met Office.The entire west coast of the UK is now about 2.5C above average. A large portion of Scottish waters are 2-3C warmer than usual for the time of year.
In one location, just off Tyne and Tees, temperatures are 5C higher than average, according to the Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science.Dr Zoe Jacobs, who is based at the National Oceanography Centre, first noticed the unusual marine temperatures a few weeks ago. She found that pockets of the UK had been coming in and out of a mild heatwave since late 2024. That heat intensified and spread in March and has now surged.
