    You can see the collision through the door of the plane as the skydivers are exiting. All survive, most by jumping. One of the pilots on the least damaged plane jumps, the other stays onboard and lands safely. Look closely and you can see one skydiver actually hits the second plane on impact.

    Welp.

    That pretty much ends my skydiving career before it ever even begins.

    Thank you

    My Buddy just asked me to go skydiving tomorrow. Its too cold, though I think. In the forties on the ground here. Plus, I work. Plus, I'm cheap. Maybe this Summer, I told him.
