Description
After an uneventful freefall, the skydiver deployed his main parachute and descended toward the landing area. The skydiver was seen approaching on final downwind. All at once the skydiver tried to turn into the wind at a low altitude with one sharp toggle pull and violently impacted the ground. He died shortly later in hospital.
