@@badmonkey2222 I totally understand and support her decision to jump again. The bottom line is human flight is so important to those of us who jump (and so special) that the small degree of risk of injury or death is not signifiant enough to dissuade us. I fractured my ankle on my second jump, but that only motivated me to rehab it quickly and I jumped again in only 3 weeks with a heavily taped up ankle when still didn't even have all the range of motion back.
This young lady is a true walking miracle. God bless her. As for her choice to one day skydive again, the thing she has going for her is the chances of both chutes failing again are close to none. Happy Easter everybody
Terminal velocity in a free fall for a human is 110-130 mph,. That being said the reserve that partially opened is what slowed her down enough to save her life. Hitting the ground at 80 mph is still no joke I'm inclined to believe it wasn't quite that fast probably more like 60 but either way she's one lucky young lady and the fact that she's even considering skydiving again is preposterous, but that's just me.
Good morning Clarkke, I haven't jumped since about 1969 at which time I had logged just over 3500 jumps (the really OLD days with round canopies @ 28-35 feet in diameter and eventually the Para-Commander) and I too think that a fall @ 80+ MPH into solid ground is NOT survivable. I completely agree with the estimate of 50-60 MPH which is still barely survivable. There had to have been at least a partial deployment of either main or reserve chutes. I experienced only 3 malfunctions in all those jumps with one involving a main- reserve entanglement (the hardest landing I ever had!) and managed to walk away with only fibular, rib and thumb fractures. I'm quite sure the rate of descent was no faster than 20-30+ MPH. Although it seemed MUCH faster. Either way, God bless this young lady. Actually, I think He already has! All the best to you and yours, Terry
I thought maybe she descended into a forest somewhere and the chute probably caught into a branch breaking her fall. But the fact she plumped into a plain surface (even with the botched chute) and lived to tell about it, recovered as swiftly as she did is absolutely astounding.
@@luckypurplebananas In the interview she said the reserve parachute went out but twisted with the original and sent her into a spiral. So she still had some sort of resistance that is different than hitting with no parachute. Still absolutely amazing she survived.
The spiral motion saved her, the energy transfers towards the direction her body was turning. Like skipping a rock on top of a pond except you will get hurt in some way because it’s still allot of energy.
Look at her smile!!! This sweet gal has an astonishingly positive outlook and her inner perseverance during her recovery is beyond admirable! She is SPECIAL!

Wow!!! She is for sure an example for me.....i tend to fall apart with life issues....with her mental/emotional strength its truelly a miracle shes alive and well. 😇 stay safe everyone
I wonder if it was her choice to go solo or if they didn’t offer tandem . I jumped when I was 16 clearly wasn’t ready so they broke their no tandem rule for me
So it sounds like her pilot chute got wrapped around her leg. She lost altitude awareness and her AAD kicked out her reserve. That caused the main to open by changing her body position maybe? A down plane is no joke, she should have cut away her main
This was my take exactly. Students should cut away if they don't have a good chute by 2500ft. We do not want to let the AAD deploy if we can keep from it.
She's insane to even consider going skydiving again. Life is too short and miracles happen once so don't push your luck! Thank God for giving you a second chance to live and walk again. Rarely it happens.

You are right, life is short. Way too short but the point of life is to live it. Not to avoid life's adventures for a false feeling of safety. Go out and live while you are alive.
She must eat her spinage I've seen those flying squirrel outfit some skydivers where it helps them Glide so that that if their parachute doesn't open taken away Squad down and it was slow down their fall I think she should wear one of those just do the extra safe sides we don't happen again I admire her bravery to go back out and Skydive again after what happened a new woman that fell from skydiving and she broke almost every bone in her body she's able to walk again but huge portion of her bones were so deteriorated broken they had to replace a lot of it with metal she survived it too she's able to walk but her flexibility is limited dude having so much metal bones but she's grateful to be alive it's really rare to survive something like that
Man, this is weird. People fall off step ladders and kill themselves. Glad she's alive but I'd find another hobby. It's a bit unclear to me as to whether or not her chute opened partially. From 13,000-feet she wouldn't have hit the ground going 80mph....without something slowing her down a bit.
Yeah there's more to the story than this. Hitting anything at 80 mph would sever a limb at best, or kill you. Either she's a character in a M. Night Shamalan movie, or there's more to the story
Surprised She didn't mention being bitten by hundreds of fireants. i came here reading that she's alive bcos the fireants bit her which got the adrenaline going which helped her heart to keep running.
Good times. No one lives forever. Most never live at all. If she makes a road trip east and stops by the Delaware beaches, I have enough long boards to go around. Let's do some surfing this summer
I'm glad she's ok, but to thank "god". Wow. I mean what kind of sadistic "god" would let it happen in the first place? Thank the doctors who assisted in keeping you alive after the accident, or the family that was there for you during this unfortunate accident. But seriously. Thanking a false sadistic "god" is to much.
I can't believe that she's walking again. That's amazing.
I can't believe that's she's considering sky diving again.......
@@badmonkey2222 I could almost see doing it one more time. I don't think I could do it two more times.

She has a stronger mental Health than most to jump right back into what almost killed her. Such a strong woman!
Terminal velocity is more like 120mph.
No it's not, it's about half that....120.
@ yeah I just noticed the typo supposed to be a one instead of a two.

This is amazing she survived and is able to walk.
I thought maybe she descended into a forest somewhere and the chute probably caught into a branch breaking her fall.
But the fact she plumped into a plain surface (even with the botched chute) and lived to tell about it, recovered as swiftly as she did is absolutely astounding.
Her two chutes slowed her up enough. If she truly hit at 80 mph the first thing that would've gone through her mind would've been her feet.
it's not the fall that kills you, it's that sudden stop that does it.
I didn’t expect to laugh here but read this and started cracking up.
Man, I thought you were saying she hit with NO CHUTE?!?! COME ON MAN!!!!
She did hit the ground with no parachute. What are you even talking about?
@@luckypurplebananas In the interview she said the reserve parachute went out but twisted with the original and sent her into a spiral. So she still had some sort of resistance that is different than hitting with no parachute. Still absolutely amazing she survived.
She's definitely got a guardian angel.
Miracles Still Happen
Wow, talk about rapid recovery..Glad she survived.
Truly remarkable! And she walks! Amazing!
She definitely had Angels guiding her to the ground. Like wings and a prayer.
16 jumps wow she’s brave
Peggy Hill taught me not to jump out of airplanes
The spiral motion saved her, the energy transfers towards the direction her body was turning. Like skipping a rock on top of a pond except you will get hurt in some way because it’s still allot of energy.
Me flirting: Hey girl, did it hurt when you fell from heaven?
I can't believe she survived it. God bless her what a beautiful young girl! 🙏🏼 ❤
Look at her smile!!! This sweet gal has an astonishingly positive outlook and her inner perseverance during her recovery is beyond admirable! She is SPECIAL!
she nearly lost her life, lucky to be alive. " Yeah, I'm gonna go do that again "
Everybody gonna die
Love that

My girl Jordan! You rockstar! Loved watching you do this incredibly hard journey!
Wow Jordan you’re a miracle sweetheart! You definitely had a flying angel 👼 with you 🌸👼🌸👼🌸👼🌸 ☀️ Best wishes!
Where's the actual footage!?
Hush Rambo. ❤
what a brave and beautiful soul! wish you all the best ...so glad you survived!
Bless you Beauty. You're an inspiration. Looking death in the face and still deciding to live life unrestrained. Love it!
Her to insurance company: I fell down
Insurance adjuster: ok sounds good, claim approved
Wow!!! She is for sure an example for me.....i tend to fall apart with life issues....with her mental/emotional strength its truelly a miracle shes alive and well. 😇 stay safe everyone
Amazing
This is proof we all have a time.
Bless your soul
It wasn't your day,no matter how high you were.It just wasn't meant to be that day.
a stable body position is what, 120mph freefall? she still hit the ground going like 66% of terminal velocity
God bless and all the goodness to the people you helped her too : )
I am 100% going skydiving this year ! Stoked !
Omg 😲 😱 I can't believe she lived!!! GOD must have a plan for her. So glad she made it. ❤❤❤❤
Bullshit
😅😅😅
This is why I'm never skydiving
Lucky lady, should buy herself a lottery ticket
She must've had a gaurdian angel watching over her that day. God Blessed her with a life saving miracle. Amazing 🛐 warrior
On my fifth jump out of A C 130 my left leg wound up in the risers I was able to get myself right and bicycle kick for the win

They should discuss the ground where she landed. It could not have been pavement.
She still had two open chutes. Her decent rate would of been slower than 80mph
I wonder if it was her choice to go solo or if they didn’t offer tandem . I jumped when I was 16 clearly wasn’t ready so they broke their no tandem rule for me

I broke my back in 2 places in a roll over when the car was travelling Hella slower... So I wish this woman realises just how lucky she was!?!?🤯💔😩🤷🤦
so a 2-out that turned into a downplane and didnt cut away? what caused the AAD to fire?
I figure your not that worried because your not gonna feel much if your a pancake. If at first you don’t succeed maybe skydivings not for you.
That malfunction chute slowed her decent down enough giving her a chance to survive
I heard she landed on an Ant mound that broke her fall. Why didn't she talk about that?
Different lady. That lady is 71 years old.
They showed the skydiving videos too much. What a trigger talking about parachutes not opening. It took away from the young lady's story.
You don't think she is proud of her jumps? I would think she would be.

Pirates only wear puffy shirts 🤣
How does anyone know how fast it was?
U dont but it would be less than 80mph. 2 chutes open slows u down a lot

Those are called wingsuits, and it is used to glide longer distances. But you still need a parachute to land.
Maybe skydive again... third time lucky!
She needs to stop pretending she isn't a cat 😸

I fell off my bed and cried 😢 thought I broke my elbow...
Trying to eat breakfast while watching this and honestly gagging thinking of her situation
GOD HAS IN STORE FOR HER * A HIGHER CALLING SHE DOESN'T KNOW IT YET 👍😎✌️
There was a flight attendant that was sucked out of a plane and survived the fall. Maybe women are more resilient to falls.
DAMN!!!!! 1000% WHAT???????
Surprised She didn't mention being bitten by hundreds of fireants. i came here reading that she's alive bcos the fireants bit her which got the adrenaline going which helped her heart to keep running.
That was Joan Murray, not this woman.
Good times. No one lives forever. Most never live at all. If she makes a road trip east and stops by the Delaware beaches, I have enough long boards to go around. Let's do some surfing this summer
… and she’s gonna sky dive again!
Skydiving is an objectively idiotic thing to do as a hobby.
God bless
Count your blessings & find something safer
Clickbait. Both out downplane. She should switch to bowling.
Call Nick Fury!!!!! She’s a super!!!
She opened her hairachute lol

Laugh now, just hope you can laugh tomorrow.

If at first you don’t succeed skydiving 🪂 not for you
I disagree. My first few 2 jumps were not good. Neither was my 5th. But by keeping at it I got good at it.
