Go skydiving, they said. It'll be a blast, they said.
This happened back on September 20 near Tully Airport in Queensland, Australia.
The rest of that caption:
According to ATSB, when the parachute got snagged, the plane dramatically reduced in speed, making the pilot believe the plane had stalled.
This is when 13 parachutists were seen bailing from the aircraft.
The snagged parachutist was able to cut all 11 lines, freeing himself from the plane before deploying his main parachute and landing. He suffered minor injuries.
The pilot then declared a mayday call and was getting ready to abandon the plane and jump himself.
As he got closer to the ground, he felt certain he could land the plane, which he did.
The camera operator, who got kicked off the side of the plane, also suffered only minor injuries. The plan was "for the parachutists to conduct a 16-way formation filmed by a parachuting camera operator."
Obviously that did not happen, though at least only minor injuries were had.
Well, glad everybody's okay!
I guess I'll stick to my plan of never, ever going skydiving.
