    For someone who has 100 videojumps, you seem to have very little understanding for the risks involved with it and/or how your system works.

    One sentence: Bullshit remark.

    I totally agree with the OP. For me the most annoying sentence is: "We need more information so we can learn from this incident" I know there are no stupid questions, but this is total ignorance of all the lessons we already learned in the past. In my opinion, we already have all the information we need to make safe skydives. The basic problem is the non-adherence to these already learned lessons.

    I'd be extremly careful with interfering with a TI in trouble. First he shouldn't get into trouble, but if he gets there he should Know what to do and that's the point where an outside person could be more of a problem than help. Just a question for everybody: What's the correct procedure for a bridle entanglement or a drogue entanglement? Answer: One try to solve the problem than deploy the reserve immediately to avoid highspeed. Notice it doesn't say, wait for the videographer to help you. The point I'm trying to make is that a TI is trained to handle these 'fuckups' and as long as you don't know what he's going to do, I'd recommend to stay away. Max

    After every accident or fatality a lot of people are asking for information about this incident, so that we may learn from it. But looking at the incidents of the last years. When has there been an incident that was not avoidable by the application of already available information? What is there to learn from the most recent incidents? Don't turn too low, execute your EP correctly and in time, stay altitude aware, don't do stupid things. I know, sometimes people die doing everything right, but these are not the ones I'm talking about. So, why are we discussing in INCIDENTS about improving safety if we are not willing to use and apply available information? Max
