UNBELIEVABLE: MAN SURVIVES 10,000 FOOT FREE FALL

BBC:

A skydiver survived after his main parachute failed to open properly during a 10,000ft freefall.

He crashed on to the roof of a hangar at Tilstock Airfield in Whitchurch, Shropshire. The injured man was rescued from the roof by firefighters.

He was treated for head and neck injuries then flown to hospital, but is not thought to be seriously injured.

The skydiver, aged in his 40s, had been filming tandem jumps for the Parachute Centre.

The accident happened just after 1500 BST.

"He's very lucky and I think he will make a full recovery"


MAYBE WE CAN SURVIVE OBAMA, AFTER ALL!

What would one feel like after having survived such a fall?

That guy might just be a superhero.
