Well, that made for an exciting jump, I guess

Watching the ground getting closer and closer must have been nervewracking! Glad you kept a cool head and did what you had to do👍🏻

Lucky the main didn't come out of the bag and tangle with the reserve.

Lucky lucky.....

Greenzone. Perfect.

At least you didn't have to go far to retrieve your main! Glad it turned out well!

at least you didn't have to go search for the main.

A powerful, pucker factor, moment!

Easy repack.... on the main.

Unnecessary music..

This is because your body position wasnt good when you deployed the canopy right ?

Do you think it might have had something to do with how the PC was tossed? Like did you give it a hard lateral toss or just kinda dump it? I've read quite a few articles on the importance of having a strong lateral toss on the PC rather than just dumping as these types of things can happen.

It's called a horseshoe bc it is connected at 2 places, the risers were the chute should be attached and his leg were it definetly should not, making a U shape (horseshoe shape) Extreme danger bc 1 it is a high speed mal so little time for error and 2 bc if you cut away it is still attached. Popular thinking is to just pull the reserve. It wastes less time (high speed mal) and the mess is going to go up higher increasing chance of reserve main entanglement. The jumper did cut away bc I can see his empty cable housings at one point. This mal should never happen! Pull stable and most importantly toss your pilot out harder to the side!!

Man....you're SO lucky that stayed in the bag. You might want to take up shuffleboard now because you used up all your luck on that one. HAHA Nice job making it through.

that must have been the most terrifying thing ever

sorry mom... lol

You handled that very nicely, it very easily could have been turned out tragic Any malfunction that you take care positively, is a good day! Thanks for sharing the video.

Who is the female diver? I think I know her!

did you pull your reserve or was this an AAD fire?

makes sense...idiot

And whats more! you seem to have gone low on the 2 way you where trying to film. Bummer!

holy ground rush batman.....i no robin i just had to move my large balls out the way to find my reserve handle

Damn dude, glad your alright. Makes me wonder what your friends were thinking when they saw you not deploy on time

I approve of your 28 Days Later soundtrack.

question if you didn't get caught by your ankle, you think the bag would have opened up correctly? maybe it was better off it didn't deploy wrapped around your ankle, either way awesome work on walking away fly safe!!!!

that was jump no. 107. By putting a hand on my head and the other back to grab the pilot chute I had a slightly head down position at deployment which ended up with the bridal wrapped around my ankle. The drag from the pilot chute kept me upside down/on my back

In this case it was due to bad body position during deployment

You're from UK right? Then you can go to AFF when you turn 16.

How does horseshoe happens? Is it due to bad bag job?

how many jumps? how does holding your head put you on your back?

ESCAPOU POR POUCO

No risk no fun... I'm still under age and cant go sky diving, and even tho i know the risks of it.. When I turn 18... First think to do will to throw my self out of a plane(after AFF ofc :P)

i hate to be "that guy" but what is the song?

you are lucky that fabrics of the main stays inside :) nice save!

the pilot chute remained inflated and wrapped around my foot until landing... pretty hard to run it out on 1 foot;)

Glad you are okay! Least you didn't have to find your main!

scary

good job not wasting more time

he packed the reserve:)

how did billy save u?

jesus you sounds like you're 12 years old... "being gay" ? really? run along back to the swing set kiddo.

Great job.

I deployed the reserve and was undey canopy at about 1200 ft in a good position to start downwind. I made two attempts to clear it (although everything was moving so fast I couldn't really see what was caught on what, the video is only 10% speed which makes it much easier to see what had happened) and then if you watch the video you will see the view change to almost straight down. That's when I leaned back (beacuase of the drag I was in a head down position) and pulled both handles.

Did you deploy the reserve or did an AAD do it?

Of course it's a horseshoe. The main just never deployed.

You should ALWAYS be thinking about stuff like that. Every time you go up in the air plane you should run a malfunction senerio and emergency procedure through your head. He did a great job of keeping track of altitude and saving his life instead of screwing around trying to figure out what to do. There wasn't much time for any more mistakes. Don't appologise to mom... Thank her for raising you with a good head on your shoulders.

Ohhh shit!
