Ansar Mohammed got a nice surprise -- a premature deployment -- while sit flying with Whit Bakers, Andre Stepsky and Joe "The German" at Skydive Sebastian in Florida. He's lucky he wasn't head down when this happened, like this scary head down opening. Yet another reminder to check your pilot chute and closing loop before every exit. Have a fun and safe weekend everyone.

If you're going to have a malfunction and cutaway, the least you could ask for is a perfectly shaped bow-tie line over. But forget about this handsome looking mal; there were some pretty interesting emergency procedures going on here -- watch his hands closely (WTF??). But at the end of the day he landed safely and that's all that matters. Thanks to Icarus Canopies (by NZ Aerosports) for the video. Caption contest anyone? (caption with the most 'LIKES' wins a bow-tie)

This is how accidents happen. Wait for it... wait for it... KAPOW! (insert Batman fight scene caption here). Luckily no morons were hurt during the making of this video -- not badly at at least. You have to admit, with miles of open air, he does have pretty good aim. All jokes aside, please be careful and fly safe everyone!

The last thing a paraglider wants to see flash before their eyes as they ground launch off a cliff in Moab is their glider. I think the only thing that re-inflated his glider was the warm, moist air that came out of his pants. "Oh f**k. Ohhh, shit. Holy shit" sounds about right. This could've been really messy. Blue skies... and soft(er) launches!

Don't try this at home. Initiating a hook turn 100 feet lower than normal will get you a broken femur, a nice piece of titanium and a few screws in your leg. And if you do attempt to pull off a stunt like this, you may consider trying it at the end of the summer... not the beginning. For those of you looking for some swooping advice, Hitler had mad swooping skillz. Who knew?

All goes well until it's time to dump (no pun intended), then shit hits the fan. Pilot chute entanglement. Shit. Reserve pilot chute entanglement. Shit. Reserve freebag entanglement. Shit! Did I mention shit hits the fan? As if his day couldn't get any worse, watch 'til the very end for the final bit of "oh shit."

Three words come to mind: cutaway, shit and F*CK -- not particularly in that order. Glenda and Phil attempt a Mr. Bill which goes horribly wrong. If you don't know what "Mr. Bill" is, please don't try this at home. Have you ever successfully pulled off a Mr. Bill?

Note to self: Don't roll backwards through risers to celebrate a good jump! Chris Grissom was lucky enough to fight his way through this nasty double malfunction and walk away unharmed. I'll bet $20 he doesn't know how to speak Spanish... this mal just scared the English right out of him. Blue skies and soft(er) landings, Chris.

I couldn't understand a word he said, but yet I understood everything. Anyone else know (or want to guess) what he said?
