| #12 Its not the jump that gets you - it's the rather sudden stop. (and any bouncing). Must have been so hyper-focused on the jump, and the guy signalling, that she misfired - tragically. Is she a pole dancer too? (2nd pic in the article...) |

| #11 /\ Actually, twisted suspension lines are not that uncommon. Poorly executed door exit can bring it on. First thing you do as the canopy opens is look up and check the lines. If twisted, reach up as high on each riser as you can and pull them apart while bicycling your skinny legs in the opposite direction of the twist like a sob. Never had any that would not straight up and fly right. A little bit trickier on a night jump.... along with everything else. |
