Description
Jumper was doing a demo into a large outdoor dance party from a helicopter at approx 2700 feet, this was his 2nd or 3rd such jump into this event. He wore his wingsuit and backflew most of the freefall with a second person. He opened his canopy at a low altitude (approx 75-100 feet) and ended up having line twists on the main. He then crashed into trees and then a car while under a possibly spinning main with line twists.
