David Davis Oxfordshire Canopy Collapse 1969/1970

Recommended Posts

David Davis is currently Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union

Is there anything to corroborate this claim?

Quote

Davis was 21 when it happened, parachuting mid-air over Oxfordshire when his canopy collapsed after another thrill seeker crashed into him from above, sending the pair spiraling to the ground at 40 miles an hour.

Somehow, Davis walked away without serious injury, apart from two compressed vertebrae in his neck, irritating the nerve running down his left arm; the other parachutist was less lucky, breaking his back and fracturing his leg in two places.
