A Florida skydiver was injured last week during a mid-air collision.
The skydiver, Sebastian Leal, caught the moment he collided with another jumper at Skydive City on his Go-Pro camera.
“I remember exiting the airplane and approximately five seconds afterwards, we collided,” said Leal.
Leal was knocked unconscious. “I’ve had some near collisions which was scary but I had never actually experienced or seen a collision of this type,” said Leal.
Leal’s father, Alejandro, said he’s grateful his son’s automatic reserve deployed.
Leal ended up on a County Road 54, where several people rushed to his aid.
“My next memory is lying on the ground, in pain,” he said.
Leal, who has been at Tampa General Hospital for a week, is paralyzed from the waist down. He fractured his spine in four places.
The 23-year-old has done over 400 jumps and said he’s not going to let this one scare him.
“I love flying winged suits…I encourage people to try it…I have no regrets and it’s a great feeling you know. I have no regrets," Leal said.
Sebastian and his family, who are originally from Mexico City, were expected to leave the hospital this morning to head to Atlanta to rehab.
Doctors have told Leal, that it could be five to 10 weeks before he walks again.
