<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tIT\u2019S A PROCESS THAT WILL TAKE SOME TIME. SO WE HAVE NEW DETAILS ABOUT THE SKYDIVING ENTRANCE GONE WRONG AT THE FOLSOM PRO RODEO. IT HAPPENED AS HUNDREDS WERE WATCHING. THE VIDEO STARTS AS THE SKYDIVER IS COMING DOWN. THE RODEO HAS FEATURED A SKYDIVER WITH A LARGE WEIGHTED FLAG AT THE OPENING CEREMONY FOR YEARS, BUT SUDDENLY THE FLAG APPEARS TO GET STUCK ON A TREE AND SEND THE SKYDIVER CRASHING FACE DOWN. SO WE WANT TO SHOW YOU A COMPARISON. THIS IS HOW THE LANDING IS SUPPOSED TO GO. THIS IS SOME VIDEO FROM 2016 FROM THE AIR. YOU CAN SEE HOW SMALL THAT LANDING AREA IS AND HOW EASY IT COULD BE BLOWN OFF COURSE. SO WE\u2019VE JUST HEARD FROM A RODEO SPOKESPERSON. THEY SAY THE SKYDIVER IS DOING WELL. THANKFULLY HE JUST HAD\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
