Guy survived parachute accident

I came across this story while trying to check the weather. This guy's chute tangled up, and he hit pretty hard, but not hard enough, it would appear.

Damn. My dad used to do some parachuting (I think he has 20-40 logged jumps), but I have a strict rule about jumping out of perfectly good airplanes without some strong motivation.

I absolutely loved it. I'd do it again in a heartbeat, if it weren't for the expense.

There is nothing NOTHING as thrilling as landing and there is NOTHING like freefall.
