He plummeted to the ground after his parachute failed to completely open.

Oh, man. Golfers, did you ever hit one in the rough? Of course you have. Baseball players, ever struck out? Bowlers, ever miss a 7-10 split? Sure, and do you hear them complaining? Of course not! But let one little parachute fail to open...

A very lucky guy. Hope he starts a different hobby after this.

I was a paratrooper in the Army (I did it for the extra $55 a month). Once I got out of the Army I never had the desire to jump from a plane again.

I won’t jump out of perfectly good airplane.

I had a co-workrer once, a beautiful Russian girl who was excited for her 2000th jump and wanted me to come jump with her.

Nope, sorry not

I was at a friend’s house a few weeks ago a few days after I went skydiving. There’s an airport near them that has a skydiving operation. One of my friend’s sons told me they hear the skydivers over their house.

“What, you hear the planes?”

“No. the screams.”

For the record, I just enjoyed the ride with a big smile. No screams, but there was a fleeting “What did I just do?” moment as my tandem instructor and I exited the plane at 13,000 feet.
