Oops. Didn't look at the dates, thought this was a new thread. Never mind.

At least it looks like his '1000 page FOIA' document came to exactly squat. Big surprise there.

I believe there were two fatalities at this years event, one suicide and a parachuter whose chute didn't open.

Any cite on the parachuter? This is the first I'm hearing about it.

Don't really know so I shouldn't be posting but I think the skydiver had a really close call but landed ok.

Wife and I saw the skydiver cut loose his main chute and landed with the spare chute. Wife was freaking out as she saw the main falling fast and in a big ball.... The skydiver walked past us asking if anyone saw his main canopy land.. We told him about 2 streets in and 7ish...
