Soldier Survives Parachute Failure in California
A British paratrooper survived a 15,000-foot fall during training in California after his parachute malfunctioned, crashing through the roof of a home in Atascadero.
Miraculously, he suffered only moderate injuries and is expected to recover. The homeowners, who weren’t inside, called it “a real miracle.” Military officials are investigating and will cover the damage, while locals praised the soldier’s survival as “something out of a movie.”
