Parachute man dies in tandem jump
A learner skydiver escaped his first parachute jump unharmed despite being strapped to an instructor who died of a heart attack on the way down.
US soldier Daniel Pharr said his military training helped him land safely after the pair left the plane together at 13,500 feet over South Carolina.
He said he knew something was wrong when George Steele stopped answering his questions after their parachute deployed.
