It was just a normal skydiving exercise – until it was bad. The friend, who published a video recorded by the equipment, was even suspended from the profession.
Peng Yujiang practiced an exercise of normal skydiving, 3000 meters in altitude. Until it is designed by a strong air stream to more than 8,000 meters high (Almost the same altitude as Mount Evereste). More than an hour was on the air.
Suddenly his hands froze – he was facing temperatures of -35ºC. “I kept trying to speak on the radio,” he told. However, a chamber that had embedded on his equipment recorded the moment in video.
Chinese entities consider the case an accident. “A normal person cannot be exposed to 8,000 meters without oxygenThat is why this is not something that can be done voluntarily, ”said a sports officer to.
The friend who was still on land, “Gu Zhimin, published a flight video without authorization, which had a negative impact,” says the authorities’ report. “He was suspended for six months And he was asked to write a report to deeply reflect on the negative impact of his behavior. ”
Now this flight approaches the world record of 9,946 m established by the German paragliding Ewa Wiśnierska in 2007, when it was also caught by a similar air stream while flying a paragliding in Australia-he was unconscious for about 40 minutes, and only when he arrived the Earth discovered what he had done.
