The most likely scenario is that he died on landing or before or shortly after.

A body of any kind is destroyed very quickly in the wild.

There is always the chance tho.

A night jump about two years before DB, one guy is found hung up in a tree, his feet about three feet above the ground.

When ask why he was still hanging, he said he could not see the ground in the dark and unsure if popping the reserve would be long enough to get down on.

Ol’ DB, stuck in a tree, cold rainy, dark; a big fall as he slides down the reserve.

Serious leg injuries, dies of exposure in the woods.
