Midair Skydive Rescue Will Leave You White as a Sheet


Anyone for jumping out of an airplane at 12,500 feet and hurtling uncontrollably to the ground with only a modified tablecloth standing between you and certain doom? No? Well, after watching the video above, we certainly can't blame you.
Veteran skydiver James Lee was taking part in a jump over Wiltshire, England, when just after he left the plane, disaster struck him right in the noggin. He was accidentally hit on the back of the head by another diver, knocking him unconscious on a free-fall.

Lee's fellow divers realized something was wrong with Lee when he didn't respond to their hand signals. The divers corrected Lee's falling position and pulled his chute, saving his life. Lee regained consciousness soon after and floated safely to the ground. The whole harrowing incident was captured by his helmet cam, so we can all experience the terror first-hand.
Impressively, the near-death experience hasn't soured Lee's affection for skydiving. "It hasn't put me off at all," he told The Telegraph. "I have not jumped too much lately because of the weather, but will be back in the sport this season."
After watching the video above though, we'll just be staying put right here on the nice safe ground.
