💨 Abstract

A skydiver's parachute got entangled with a plane's tail at 15,000 feet. The skydiver, P1, used a hook knife to cut free and safely landed despite complications. The plane, a Cessna 208, landed with substantial damage. P1, an experienced skydiver, was injured but survived. The incident highlights the importance of hook knives in such emergencies.
