Skydiving fatalities are estimated to be around 1 death to every 100,000 jumps.

3 steps.......very simple.....primer parachute(which will drag the main parachute out of bag.) 2 - main parachute which will guide you all the way down.3- in case of any malfunction or fail of main parachute you can release the hole main parachute pack by simply pulling the release handle and then use your emergency parachute that will lower your fall impact down to a safe speed.(you might get injured but risk of death would be very low) . beware that emergency parachute has no-or just a little control ability in your movement in the air and it has designed just to arrest the fall. the main danger in jump is human mistake or panic or even the worse FAINTING in a jump .........in case of a faint during the free jump you are gonna need a miracle to stay alive but in the other hand it would be quite a nice and painless way of death(try to look at the bright side).one can think that it`s madness to jump with parachute but actually its a pretty safe activity if done well...always..and remember always control your jump equipment your self even they have been controled by the best of best of this sport or some legendary person...........have fun and i assure you that no feeling can compare free jump
