maretus 0 #1 November 14, 2006 Hello all ! I just read through the List once again and something catched my eye there. There seems to be two very similar fatalities dated for the same year in the same area where the names of deceased jumpers are very alike too... So are these really two different accidents or is the same accident listed (by mistake) twice ? #34 Alez Haseke, 1996 Chamonix, France Impact I don't have much more on this one other than it happened. #38 Alexander Haseke, BASE 429, October 28, 1996 Age: 28 Cliff Jump Magland, France Alex had 30 BASE jumps and is a very experienced skydiver. This jump took place from a launch point well known to him, at night, with no wind and under a full moon. Witness reports state he did a short delay considering the altitude available and then lost sight of him. Alex is found dead hours later by a rescue team. The rig is reported to be packed slider up (single canopy container, but an old skydiving canopy more or less adapted for BASE). The report went on to say the canopy seems to have been perfectly deployed. Just curious as those two incidents seems very much alike...http://www.ufufreefly.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
