Skydiving is scary enough without the threat of another plane making it even more dangerous.

Two planes, each loaded with skydivers, crashed in Wisconsin 12,000 feet over the ground this past weekend, sending the folks in the air scrambling to jump to avoid injury. Everyone survived the ordeal after one plane incomprehensibly wound up on top of the other.

One plane fell to the ground, while the pilot of the second aircraft managed to land it, even though it had endured damage to the propeller and wings. He is the only one who suffered an injury and had escaped by pulling the emergency cord on his chute.

One of the men involved summed it up simply by saying, "“The outcome for us was as good as it could be."
