I shot this video in September 1997. It is a tandem skydive where the instructor wears the parachute and harness and the student is in a harness attatched to the instructors harness at four points. 2 at shoulder level and 2 at waist level. The instructor only connected the 2 at waist level. This is a very rare screw up and the instructor was fired that day. However he did get the other 2 connected in freefall before the drouge was deployed.
