YLN Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Man skydives but his parachute gets tangled with that of his buddy. He has a camera on his head so we see and hear what he sees and hears. It's a chilling watch, especially after the impact as he loses the capacity to breath from the shock. Four and a half years later he can only now look at the video.

Daniel Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 I don't know. The weird cut in the video don't seem right. The accident happened 4 years ago. He uploaded a video 1 month ago of him with his dog. "quadriplegic - a person who is paralyzed in both arms and both legs" Clearly using his arms and legs in the videos.

YLN Posted December 6, 2011 Author Share Posted December 6, 2011 Hmm. Something isn't right with this video. Haha, like what? Video cuts before he hit's the ground. The explanation for this is that the camcorder has also fallen 2500ft, hits the ground and skips. Plus "quadriplegic - a person who is paralyzed in both arms and both legs" Yet he's still managing to post videos and argue with people over Youtube.

Daniel Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 The explanation for this is that the camcorder has also fallen 2500ft, hits the ground and skips. Just as the cut is made this happens Looks like 2 clips edited together, badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YLN Posted December 6, 2011 Author Share Posted December 6, 2011 It was explained in youtube comments... yeah yeah... that he was taping over already recorded material, so when the camera hits the ground, it skips revealing some of the original video. Do you think that having gone to the trouble of staging a fake parachute mishap, he would fall down on not having the two clips flowing concurrently and that then is what would catch him out? As for the dog I don't know. It's just a dog. This is in your eyes a man somehow pretending to fall 2500ft. I don't think I can compete with that, but then again I might be horribly wrong. Edit: there is also a video that he describes as being of himself, a tetraplegic, holding a camera 2 years ago. A 2 year hoax involving jumping out of a plane, getting parachutes tangled to such an extent that he falls 2000ft then getting incredibly talented actors to perform rescue breaths on him, but he fails to be credible because of a video of a dog and a split second of black and white creepy footage? It's a bloody great hoax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Hey, i also might be wrong, but from the videos posted i have to argue with what he's saying. This happened 4 years ago and is those sort of miracle videos you see on the news. I couldn't find one news clipping of this accident, something news crews would be all over.

YLN Posted December 6, 2011 Author Share Posted December 6, 2011 You're supposed to cut away your original and freefall before deploying your reserve, looks like he just pulled his reserve The buddy's parachute got tangled with Tim, the buddy cut his and opened his reserve. Tim cut his original and opened his reserve, but the reserve got caught in the parachute of his buddy that was somehow tangled onto him. He says that he should have cut his original and then tried to free himself from the buddy's parachute before opening his reserve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
