00:00First parachutist stepped out of the door to assume the most forward front float position,

00:04their reserve parachute inadvertently deployed,

00:07dragging the parachutist backwards and dislodging the camera operator into free fall.

00:12The parachutist legs were injured as they struck and damaged the aircraft's horizontal stabilizer.

00:17Their canopy wrapped around the horizontal stabilizer and the elevator,

00:21suspending them beneath the aircraft.

00:24Thirteen skydivers exited the aircraft and two remained in the doorway,

00:27watching as the parachutist used a hook knife to cut sufficient reserve parachute lines

00:32to enable the parachute to tear free.

00:36The parachutist then deployed their main parachute,

00:39which tangled with the remnants of the reserve canopy.

00:42However, they were able to untangle the lines and regain sufficient control of the main parachute

00:46to land without further incident.

00:49Despite control difficulties due to substantial damage to the horizontal stabilizer

00:53and part of the reserve canopy wrapped around the tail,

00:56the pilot safely landed the aircraft back at Tully Airport.
