Skydiver Cuts Free After Parachute Gets Stuck on Plane Wing

A skydiver in Australia faced a terrifying incident on September 20 when his parachute snagged on a Cessna Caravan’s wing after jumping, leaving him dangling thousands of meters in the air. He cut himself free and deployed his main parachute, landing safely with only minor injuries. The event occurred during a skydive event involving 17 participants, and while the pilot managed to maintain flight despite damage, the investigation revealed issues with the aircraft’s weight and balance. Video footage of the incident was released by the Australian Transport Safety Bureau.
