The instructor said Mr Jones had epilepsy but hadn't had a seizure in four years and had been given the all-clear by his doctor. Mr Jones said he dreamed of being a pilot but was unable to because of his condition, so he had decided to try skydiving instead.

Kudo's to the instructor! Hero!

In 1999, skydiver Joan Murray's parachute malfunctioned, causing her to fall 14,500 feet. Her backup parachute opened at 700 feet, but it quickly deflated and she continued to plummet towards the ground at 80 miles per hour. Miraculously, Murray survived the fall thanks to the fact that she landed directly onto a mound of fire ants. Doctors believe that the intense shock of being stung over 200 times by the ants released a surge of adrenaline which kept her heart beating.

In Similar set of incidents, An incident from October 02 : Woman jumped from an aircraft and failed to open her parachute, her instructor saved her. Instructor Said Later : "Skydiving is an exciting sport, but it is also dangerous. If you are not well trained, you can put yourself at risk."

Bro, that's wild! Imagine waking up from a nap free falling through the sky. Props to Sheldon for being a real-life superhero.
