THE SKY — I’ve never been skydiving, and truth be told I’ve always been curious to try it. It seems like the rush of free-falling from thousands of feet in the air would be exhilarating and the experience of a lifetime. However, if you were unconscious for the whole thing, it would probably be the most terrifying experience you didn’t remember.
That’s exactly what happened to 25-year-old James Lee.
Lee was taking part in a jump in Wiltshire, England, when another diver ran into him mid-air and knocked him unconscious, according to The Telegraph.
As the video shows, two fellow divers came to Lee’s aid and pulled his chute. Lee came to eventually and managed to guide himself back to the ground safely, but he had no memory of what happened.
I’m desperate to say something clever and witty with all of this, but every time I try to use my brain while thinking of this scenario, all that goes through my mind is, “AAAHHHH! AAAAHHHH!”
So, that’s all I’ve got. Watch the video, and be grateful you’re securely in your chair and conscious.
