Alan Pollock flew a Hunter under the top span of Tower Bridge on 5th April 1968. IIRC he was retired on medical grounds to avoid embarrassment to the authorities.

I'd have a go, though without any great hope of a successful outcome. I've never flown a jet (and I've never flown under a bridge, either
).
I'd say the greatest chance of losing it would be during either the first few minutes, or the last few.
A good ending would be largely down to the skill of the folks on the ground.
