SILOAM SPRINGS - Her story is one of survival. Just two months ago, Shayna Richardson, 21, of Joplin,  Missouri  faced certain death when during a skydiving adventure her parachute and reserve chute failed above Siloam Springs. 

 

Shayna Richardson says she panicked while spiraling towards the earth at 50 miles an hour.  With no way to stop, Richardson says she accepted her fate was death.

 

Richardson took up the sport of skydiving after her 21st birthday in May.  She says she wanted to jump since age 12, and only now is fulfilling her wish.

 

 

"Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger."

 

- Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials

Luck? No.

See how her name is similar to Richard Dean Anderson. She probably created a parachute using hair clip and piece of string.

But still broke all the bones in her face and her pelvis?

How human stupidity 1? apart from the people that packed the parachute, that is.

 

That really is a crazy tale. I have heard a similar story before, but that was of a tandem jump where the same thing happened again... :)

I remember hearing once how women are much more likely to survive something like this, must be that extra layer of fat.

People laugh when I say that I think a jellyfish is one of the most beautiful things in the world. What they don't understand is, I mean a jellyfish with long, blond hair.
