"Bionic Woman", a 1976 TV show in which the lead character became bionic as the result on injuries in a skydiving accident.

pilotdave 0 #19 July 26, 2004 You can see lots of skydiving scenes from TV and movies at http://www.skydivingmovies.com/ver2/pafiledb.php?action=category&id=14. Almost every TV show mentioned is on there... Didn't see anyone mention the ER skydiving scene, lots of shows on TLC/Discovery channels, real TV almost always has skydiving, and even the weather channel did a show about skydiving and how weather affects it.

evilivan 0 #22 July 26, 2004 Through complicated Amazon search gone wrong (I don't want to talk about it) I came across an obvious classic called Freefall, starring (not sure I can use the word in this context?) Eric Roberts..... No idea what its about but it does have picutre of a parachute on the front, and I suppose a bit of a clue in the title. Anyone seen it? Is it as depressingly terrible as it looks?"If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation."
