Holy shitballs, Batman! I just soiled myself. Nothin' like your bridle and d-bag wrapping around the strut of a helicopter to spice up a heli jump. Things get even spicier once the canopy starts to inflate. Scary stuff like this can be avoided with something as simple a gear checks. DOUBLE CHECK YOUR GEAR. If there was one word for you to describe this incident, what would it be? Let us know in the comments.

Nothing better than jumping into a tight space with a lot of spectators to get your blood pumpin' and ego soarin', AMIRIGHT? The cheering! The kids! The autographs! The free drinks! It's all glitz and glamor when you land that beautiful nylon wing -- unless you're this character, of course. Watch as this jumper slides into home... or something like that.Well kids, don't try these demo jumps at home. Particularly if your accuracy needs, uh, dialing in.

This is what a human projectile looks like -- it's heavy, it's fast, and it won't stop for anyone. Take notes and don't do this, especially if you only have 65 jumps like this guy. Slow is fast. And in case you're wondering, here's what a real mid-air collision looks like.

"This is Sparta SoFPiDaRF!" Pull them strings, people. It's a good thing these guys were swooping over water, cuz the ground wouldn't have been so friendly. Ouch. Take the time to learn swooping safely -- seriously. Oooor just trust your rears and never give up the gates.

Surprise! You just packed yourself a malfunction before your canopy even opened. Go ahead and cutaway... that step-through isn't going to fix itself the longer you wait.

What would Simon Bones say if he got his parachute wrapped up in a freefly tube? If you guessed, "wooooo............ wooooo!", you win a prize (the prize being a clean cutaway, of course). Thanks for sharing, Bones. Not quite sure what the lesson is here, but he sure was relaxed about the situation. For the record, I promised Bones a shoulder rub and handy in exchange for this footage, so I'm taking one for the team purely for your viewing pleasure -- the least you can do is share this video, dammit.

It's never fun when you're close to the ground and your parachute is still there but suddenly not square -- especially around 250 feet! However, no real freakout from this skydiver, but I'd wonder what was going on in his head. Safe landing in the end, but yeah, yowsah! ~Mel

A premature opening while sit flying is never fun, especially when you almost fall through the back of your harness/container (or so it seems). This serves as a reminder that checking your gear -- including your pin -- is never a bad idea! Need another reminder? Check out what happens when your parachute opens in the plane and then gets caught on the tail.

This tandem skydive is sick! No, really.
