Freakin gnarly! dude who pulled his cord is a hero!
"Possibly the scariest moment of my life. On the 14th of November 2014 while doing stage five of my Accelerated Free Fall program I have a near death experience.
At around 9000ft I have a seizure while attempting a left hand turn. I then spend the next 30 seconds in free fall unconscious. Thankfully my jumpmaster manages to pull my ripcord at around 4000ft. I become conscious at 3000 ft and land safely back to the ground."

I've only been once(tandem dive), and it was fun as hell. Landing was rough, but that was my fault. He told me to lift up my legs and land on my butt, but once we came in to land, I realized we were coming in hot, so instinct told me to hit the ground running. That whole "legs up" plan went right out the window. Kind of hard to run with another person on your back, so we ended up lawn darting then rolling a few yards.
