[Applause]
okay
[Music]
flips
[Music]
just info from doctor and stuff
or basically anybody who's part of the
event and then someone who
yeah you kind of just tell me what
happened
so what happened is he was coming into
land and he got caught turned in an
angle where his parachute was altitude
when he came in he left the flare
smacked in hard just hit hard
he came like a couple feet all the marks
yeah that's where he that's kind of came
in his roll yeah
yeah yeah they always think that a
plane's going down or something
the big thing is he's
alive and he's
you know yeah you know the smoke and
that's small okay so that's what they're
seeing yeah
this was video of it yeah
that's what you guys do i would never
jump out of a perfectly good plane like
you said it was nothing that he could
have done
it's a part of part of part of jumping
right yeah comes with it so
about how high up was he
when one won the
shoot
when he flash drives yeah
it was on that final it was right after
you saw the video when he turned he came
in and that's when he lost
he was probably about somewhere about
150 feet coming down and then
but so here's the thing like
he's still holding him up yeah came down
hard
if he had lost all drive
i mean when i got here i was just like
well there's a higher level of care so
yeah other he's he's their medic their
lead medic
but he's just like i'll do whatever i
can to make sure they don't find out
that you're up here it's like she broke
a femur like he's how are they how's he
gonna explain that he's gonna pay for it
i thought they're just gonna go forward
but
especially with the
what's that
oh uh is there a way that you don't do a
report it's policy we have to be
reported fair enough now if people are
aware that hey this happened and that
there was a report made then they can
it's public information you know right
now here's the problem that we're trying
to avoid he's active duty and his
command doesn't know he's here so we're
trying to keep that as shut up as
possible yeah so
basically
information requests if
if he
finds a report it's because he knows
that he was here already
