Never give up.
90’s JAVELIN owners: please make sure your gear has been made air worthy.

This skydiver had a double malfunction after a suspension line got caught on a tab, on the closing loop tab. This caused the main to inflate and immediately go into a dive. When he cut away, his main risers disconnected but the suspension line had became too tight around the tab leaving the main trailing behind. You see the result.
I did not have a hook knife. RSL was in use.
****Sunpath did issue a Service Bulletin for these containers. This was a known issue in the early 2000s. I bought the container used and the problem had been addressed, but incorrectly. I should have been more vigilant about knowing my gear and doing routine inspections. I got lucky.

He doesn't know how to jump.
Why is it that at 1:15 it looks like hes descending so slow but at 1:35 the landing looks rough and fast
And this is why I will never sky dive
just a guess… chute made in china?
Boom — "aaaaargh" is immensely preferrable over "aaaaarg" – Boom.
Siiiiigggghhhhh…. weeww!.
U r damn lucky man
Duuuuuude
Shit dude. Thank god you made it down alive!!
Globetardz be like…see there is the curve!
…Thanks for showing, this is one sport I won't be doing, I will stick too Diving the Deep Depths of Rapture ……………………………
He fought till the last minute amen to bro .what an inspiration !!!???I'm glad he's okay
I lost it when they hugged at the end… Glad you came out alright.
What a fucking ride!!
Sorry but the audio with context sounds like a porno
I could tell he was going to feel that in the morning
That people is why I will never jump out of a perfectly good plane !!!!!
Skydiving should be banned. There is no need for an ordinary citizen to own a chute and jump with it.
Incredible man. Your life means something greater and it wasn't your time yet. Absolutely incredible
I think he landed on the road bc that's where he kept looking
Wow this guy had to be in good shape to land on asphalt and walk away. Group hug to welcome you back , now you really appreciate life ! The photo at the very end shows the culprit of the malfunction. Could someone elaborate on that….?
STupid sport.
Yeah, I said it.
Just like scuba.
All the contraptions and the variables that can affect them in complex ways eventually catches up to you.
No wonder his parachute failed. Couldnt hold up the weight of his massive dick.
