TW - Parachute Jump fails!

On today's episode of The Red Eye Podcast, we take a slight diversion away from the tales of cabin crew and pilots on board the aircraft, to talk to someone who actively chose to jump out of an airplane! 

Skydiving is a popular hobby for many who like the thrills and adrenaline rush of jumping, and the incredible views of our beautiful planet as they descend. But what happens when the parachute that is meant to keep you alive as you fall to Earth, fails? 

We're talking to Justin Davies, who on one of his first solo parachute jumps suffered from a mishap with his canopy, leading him to come crashing down to the ground without a soft landing. Here about what happened on the day, and how he felt when he realised he was going to hit without a parachute!
