Why make a fake profile to ask about it?

I can confirm the fatality but I don't know what the family has done in terms of notifying relatives and such. His name was Sean. I have only heard scattered details from the grapevine, so everything I know is speculation. Anyone in the SLC scene have the full report on what happened?

The jumpers name was Sean Bullington.

The jump was a wingsuit flight from a legal cliff.

I have heard reports of object strike, but different sources conflict as to whether it was a freefall object strike (proximity flight), canopy object strike or strike during deployment (possibly as an attempt to deploy because of imminent freefall strike).

I'm sure more details will surface eventually.
