JohnMitchell 14 #4 December 27, 2008 Well, I'm glad she got all fixed up, really. It's a shame that access to health care can be so damn expensive in this country if you have the wrong job. Besides, I find her story waaay less annoying than Scott Lutz's. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seriously, can you imagine a more "Christmassy" sugary dsgustingly sweet yet patriotic bullshit story?-tough woman gets hurt in a spectacular way -while pregnant -husband serves in the military -overseas -surgery for free -right before the holidays. It's all propaganda my friend. OOh look - we stepped through the looking glass into Speakers Corner...

JohnMitchell 14 #16 December 27, 2008 Quote Just let it go guys- it's been three years. How about a simple 'Welcome back Rick- enjoy the holiday' instead? +1 I bet most of us posting here, if we got all F-ed up and had no money to pay for putting our face back together, wouldn't shrink from doing a little TV time to get it covered. With that said, some do enjoy the spotlight more than others. Our sport has always had that "dangerous" cachet that the media can sensationalize to sell their crap, I just ignore it.

dgskydive 0 #19 December 28, 2008 QuoteWhy is she a BITCH, as far as I can see she did nothing wrong. except not having insurance. Search her name and check these forums for the real story on her. It has been awhile, but if I remember correctly she never should have been in the air in the 1st place. She and her husband took her to a different DZ after every person with any brains told her that skydiving was not for her. That is the short version. I have seen many idiots get hurt but none so shameless as to actually ask the entire skydiving community to send her money to pay her medical bills. I used to work for Aerodyne and she at one point sent letters to all the manufactures asking for donations. I took that letter and threw it in the trash. She had black death written all over her from the start and people told her and her hubby about it. They chose not to listen and she proved them all correct by simply not following her emergency procedures and then quickly set out to make a name for herself over it. Seems to have worked though. http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=1947876#1947876Dom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baksteen 84 #20 December 28, 2008 I still don't get why she's having such a hard time on here. Dammit, she only had ten jumps! What kind of "accuracy" do people expect from such a student, especially after an incident like that? I know that a reserve should never be considered a "guaranteed open" of course, but it is easy to understand how a student would get that idea. As to cutting away a premature brake release - good job on her. Students of that experience level are/should not be encouraged to extensively evaluate a malfunction. Canopy choice and safety are not her primary responsibility. If at that number of jumps an instructor says to you that you can jump the canopy he's giving you, I can imagine that you don't question his wisdom. I mean, he's an instructor, right? He probably knows better than me. So riddle me this: Why is Shayna being slagged off, while you hear few people about this Rick character? HE's the one who got her into this situation, HE's the instructor whose poor judgement nearly got a student killed..."That formation-stuff in freefall is just fun and games but with an open parachute it's starting to sound like, you know, an extreme sport." ~mom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
