I was glad to see this on UA-cam - I was one of the skydivers who participated in this video and I hadn't seen it in years. I have it somewhere on a VHS cassette.
This is a good example of why an automatic activation device is important, especially for novice jumpers -- let's hear it for Cypres! These days most jumpers, including the very experienced, have them -- cuz ya just never know what could happen.
I was on the other DC-3 91 Echo while this was going down. Stretch circled the plane for a few minutes before we were cleared to exit. There were lots of emergency vehicle around when I landed.

I read about this event in a book called "Amazing Rescues."

It was a miracle. Yet those people are playing with their very lives, the lives God gives them. That is not good.
lol God, you do know that there is no evidence for that right?
