Damn! Poor kid. Hope she has a speedy and complete recovery.
Um, I think noobie divers should have backup chutes. I'd sure have one.
Buncha friends and I were gonna try it but we couldn't all be in the same place at the same time so we cancelled the idea.

Or just do it while flying over a big net. -

she is either the luckiest or the unluckiest kid ever, glad she made it...I'll be curious to see, how long it takes her to jump again. Have heard of divers going right back to a jump on their way home from hospital.

hopefully the fall knocked some sense into her.

lol

Well, I could see myself trying it again but not using that same diving company. After all, the odds of it happening twice are exponentially minute.

I wish I had jumped, now the thought of breaking a bone is a definite deterrent, it's a chance we take, youth heals fast... considering the number of successful jumps done daily to the number of accidents, odds are in your favour "most" of the time...

Gravity sucks.

Gravity sucks.

Gravity pulls. Falling sucks.

"Get out!" was the first - with a good friend shouting it. After that I couldn't get a fresh pack fast enough. Now? No way! Trees really ARE hell.

Well I'm impressed. I'd never do it.
