The thought of jumping out of an airplane is scary enough, but being unconscious and suffering a seizure mid-jump is unthinkable.
A terrifying video uploaded to YouTube by user Nomadic Adrenaline on Sunday appears to show a man named Christopher suffering a seizure while skydiving. Fortunately, the man's jumpmaster was able to pull his parachute in time.
The video, which was originally posted to Reddit by user brobray1, quickly reached the site's front page; however, the account was deleted shortly after. Since then, an AMA (Ask Me Anything) has been requested for the jumpmaster who apparently saved Christopher's life.

I did see the video, and I must say the scene is quite scary and the instructor was indeed brave and determined. A hero. I read that the safety measures would have had the parachute to open anyway, still kudos to the instructor for not leaving things to chance.

the position of the guy was definitely bad, and the parachute for sure wouldn't open properly; once I risked something similar myself...
