Friday Freakout: AFF Gone Wrong - Parachute Snags On Helmet Camera

Andrew Revesz

Another example of how an unprotected camera mounted on a helmet can become a snag hazard. Kudos to Alan for holding on to the bridle -- I think that slowed things down just enough for Paula to release the helmet (using the stock chin strap buckle) as the bag was coming out of the container! Another reminder of how important it is to have a proper helmet cutaway system when you're jumping with a camera.Thanks to Fernando Yuki for sharing this video with us so others can learn from it.
