You could always BASE jump and stay away from those dangerous aircraft.

It looked like they were trying to transfer to the other aircraft. Pilot error I guess. Wonder if they were wearing chutes?

All got out safely, including the pilot of the aircraft that lost the wing. The other aircraft landed without incident.

Everyone jumped and everyone survived. One pilot jumped,on civilian jump planes are required to wear chutes. and this time got to use it.

Bet ya the insurer of the aircraft wasn't very happy. Wonder if anyone on the ground had to dodge the falling debris.
