British citizen Mitchell Dikin miraculously saved his life during a parachute jump from a height of 3000 meters in the US state of Nevada. Despite the fact that neither his main nor backup parachute was opened, he managed to survive. This was reported by the Daily Mail.
According to reports, Dikin jumped in tandem with instructor Hiron Arsos Ponse. Thanks to a series of lucky coincidences, both survived. However, Dickie suffered severe injuries: several of his ribs were broken, his pelvis was injured, his kidney was damaged, and a hole was found in his lung. He was quickly operated on, and doctors reinforced his pelvis with metal plates. Currently, he is undergoing recovery under the supervision of doctors. The instructor's condition remains serious.
The US Federal Aviation Administration has begun a thorough investigation into all the circumstances of the incident. Meanwhile, Deakin's partner, Isabel, launched a fundraising campaign for his treatment and rehabilitation. Within the company, £16,000 (approximately $21,500) has already been collected. According to him, the collected funds will be used to cover medical services, transportation, and living expenses. If excess funds remain, Dikin intends to direct them to charity.
Experts assess this situation as one of the rarest tragedies and successful survivals in parachuting.
