Well, I think it's safe to say you're always playing the odds when you decide to jump out of a perfectly good airplane...

Few things they failed to do was come up with a plan for the break off and follow it. Looking at it looks like his partner hit him, which means there was not enough separation. That was due too the failure to turn and track away at break off height. Line twists are a nuisance and can normally be kicked out. On some small canopies they can't and you do need to get rid of it but if it was a 260 that's pretty big and they are normally docile which are less prone to radical. With them both wearing More..

@Fallswithnostyle i would say the guy who flew into his canopy radicalized everything.

@BUDBEAR one reason they should have turned and tracked at break off time to give better separation. The guy flying into him should have seen him and taken evasive action, he would have had more time if theyr had tracked . Can only assume target fixation which is quite common for newer jumpers.

@Fallswithnostyle when you say 'tracked' i assume you mean keep free falling and separating before you open shutes. and i assume the guy was 'fixated' on the landing target?

I appreciate your informative comment as it broadened my knowledge. Thumb up for you.

@BUDBEAR Yes, they should have turned 180 degrees to each other and then tracked off(way of driving forward in freefall)which means they put as much distance between each other as possible before deploying a canopy (parachute) at opening. Usually this is over a 1000ft of freefall so they turn track at say 4500ft and open their parachutes at 3500ft.That way they open in clear space so this type of collision is less likely to occur. target fixation the guy who flew into him looks like he suffere More..

@Zmokaz a lot more people die with 3 chutes then 2 due to the more complex deployment systems. Much more likley to pull the wrond handle and end up in the shit.

I can't help thinking in his behalf, "OK, there's no reserve after the reserve. This works or I die."
