A 27-year-old Lancaster man died after a sky diving accident in Taft Saturday afternoon.
Michael Scott Nielsen crashed to the ground after attempting a low-altitude turn at about 12:30 p.m. Saturday, according to a news release from the Kern County coroner's office.
He suffered major traumatic injuries as a result and was taken to Kern Medical Center, where he died five hours later.

Couldn't believe it when I heard it on Saturday. We've lost another really good one.
Mike was a wonderful person...full of energy, playful, adventurous, and a dear friend. I was so very fortunate to have known him and to have become closer to him as friends in the past couple of months.
To his wife and everyone else that loved him, I'm so sorry. Taft has become like a 2nd home to me and is such a wonderful place; His energy will be greatly missed.
