Basejumper Falls 1000ft When Parachute Fails

Only suffers cuts.

Sucks for him, but I just don't feel too bad when things go wrong for people who intentionally put themselves in life-threatening situations.

Calling BS on the title...the parachute didn't fail, he hit the wall. He didn't "fall" 1000 ft, the parachute worked fine until it twisted, and still slowed the fall after it was twisted. After pulling the chute, he was never in freefall.

From YT: "His previous 180 leaps have gone perfectly - but this time his parachute opened backwards and became twisted. He briefly floated before smashing into rocks and hurtled down the cliff face at speeds of 40mph"
