God, I'm surprised he didn't get killed. It's a fugging miracle.

wow - plently of wind hitting from the back of that building! surely a lesson of when not to go...

looks like he packed himself a 180.

1. Thanks for pointing out the obvious.
2. Thanks for pointing out the obvious in a retarded fashion. I highly doubt he did anything wrong in his packjob to "pack himself" a 180. There are many other factors to 180's than just how you pack.

strong turbulent winds near buildings are notorious for causing funky off heading openings. often such an off heading can be caused by those winds whipping the pilot chute around violently.

Exactly, which is why saying "looks like he packed himself a 180" is retarded.

Try using a word that's less demoralizing to mentally handicapped people.

To quote a comic whom I can't remember his name: "If you're offended by the word retard, you're probably not that retarded."

I laughed.
