(if you’re worried, don’t: i checked before posting. “A rodeo spokesperson told KCRA 3 that the skydiver is doing well aside from a small cut over his lip and that he will be jumping again this Friday evening.”)

Thanks. And thanks for checking before posting. A classy approach. The guy was effectively being slapped at the ground. Very glad he got lucky with the canvas. Even before he got snagged, looks like he was going to hit something or someone.

How does that even happen? Didn’t have a high performance small ram air canopy and was trying to hook it in and show off. Didn’t look to be running with the wind? Time for YouTube view

This is where I live (Folsom, California) and it was the first night of our 4th of July celebrations at our annual Pro Rodeo, the celebrations for the 4th of July begin on 07/02. While I'd love to say this was all pro MAGA idiots, it's not. Folsom Pro Rodeo draws all kinds of fun/awesome people 😊

He's part of the Pro Rodeo entertainment, not a random person. Folsom is home to Folsom Lake and the American River, it has a famous historical district (Sutter Street) where the rodeo grounds are just outside of...

...each night of the rodeo, there are thousands of people out on the street and on the river, it's the reason his flags are so large, it's because he's being seen by thousands of people at the festivities...and his stunt is that he's supposed to "land" in the middle of the rodeo. Hope that explains

I’ve lived in Folsom since ‘03. While it may not be all MAGA idiots, the majority definitely are, with their MAGA hats and Trump flags. The only neighbors of ours that go every year are our Trumper ones, so that should say something right there. Also, who celebrates America with a pedo in office?

I've lived in Folsom since Bidwell ended at Blue Ravine and Sutter middle was Folsom High School (80's) I think you're confusing Folsom with Roseville. I fly a huge flag on my home all year long and I have for years, because I'm a patriot. I'm also a Democratic Socialist who adores Hasan Piker.

No confusion I know what I see. More power to you for being so patriotic. As a non-white person, it’s hard for me to be patriotic for a country that is literally snatching people off the streets that look like me or my kids. Flying a flag for a country run by a pedo is a weird flex but you do you.

An experienced jumper can land within 10m, so catching is do-able. Issues will be how much each flag slows you down and makes you descend faster, and weird low level air currents. Jumpers avoid landing near trees and buildings for a reason

These dumbasses do not know nor care about flag rules. The flag is cudgel to push their nationalist agenda, not to represent any actual values.

A Neo Nazi masked White Supremacy group is marching in the Capitol and not one peep out of FOX or Trump. Patriot Front has been doing this for years with zero pushback from the "Party of freeing slaves". These people in those mask are just KKK in a new outfit.

🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🏾. I think… A power greater than myself, is REALLY trying to tell them something !!! I wonder 🤔…. if they are capable of listening, learning and understanding ???!

Glad the diver is okay. What is a shame is the first thing that went through my head is "This guy is gonna hit a tree wont he?" And there it is. All in all, glad the dudes okay and Im gonna go scrub my brain with E-Commerce honework.

Yep - I’m glad the skydiver is ok, and I know this had nothing to do with any of Trump’s Freedom 250 events, but I’ve gotta say … it sure feels like a metaphor for them.

If you are going to flop face-first out of control from a height, I guess a canvas awning is about the best you could hope to hit. I don't like the gaudy stunt, but I hope he was ok.

Yeah, I wonder how many of our MAGA friends that have been taken by the years of propoganda from Pledge of Allegiance all freaked out tryin' to keep that flag off the ground. I don't think they had to worry, tho, flag didn't reach the ground. Flag wanted to be friends with those tree branches!
