WHOA! Skydiver at California Rodeo Snags Tree and Crashes into Tent (VIDEO) * The Gateway Pundit * by Jordan Conradson
Skydiver crashes into a tent at the Folsom Pro Rodeo in California
A skydiver at the Folsom Pro Rodeo on Thursday survived a close call when the American flag that was attached to him got snagged on a tree, sending him free-falling into a tent next to the bleachers that were filled with spectators.
Video from the rodeo shows the skydiver gliding down with the flag, and as he approaches the landing zone, his flag gets caught on a tree.
He then crashes face down into the canopy tent right next to the stands.

Another angle shows the crash up close.
WATCH:
Thankfully, no injuries were reported, and the skydiver did another jump on Friday night.
Per ABC7:
The skydiver crashed into a small tent and avoided crashing into the nearby stands, which were filled with spectators.
The video stops right after the fall, but in a statement shared with ABC News, the Folsom Pro Rodeo says the skydiver is safe and will be skydiving again Friday night.
“On behalf of the Folsom Pro Rodeo and Choose Folsom, our skydiver Ross is safe and walked into our arena, post jump to a standing ovation. He will be skydiving into our arena again tonight, July 3rd.”
