Date: October 17th, 2018 1:32 AM Author: concupiscible national macaca I admit a certain affinity for all things military. The men and women who put on the uniform – for whatever nation – are folks who exhibit a high degree of bravery and dedication that has to be respected and admired. Such is the case of Mr. Alkemede. This particular incident is not, technically, a skydiving accident – but damn if it isn’t compelling as hell. Ironically, this is another chap who was serving in the Air Force of his nation during World War II. A First Sergeant in the Royal Air Force, Alkemade was a crew member of a British bomber, that was attacked by German fighters on a bombing run. Alkemade’s bomber was heavily damaged, on fire, and spinning out of control. Alkemade was left with very few options. He was either going burn to death with the approach of the raging fire, or die when the plane hit the fast-approaching ground.
Deciding that he didn’t like either of those options, Alkemade decided to jump out of the plane – without a parachute (it had burned up in the fire)! He was about 18,000 feet in air when he made this…momentous decision. And so he fell. The brave crewman crashed through snow-covered pine trees that broke his fall, and landed in cushioning snow below. According to the reports, he only suffered a sprained ankle, and was a bit dazed. He supposedly looked around and lit a cigarette. Even his Germans captors were amazed by the harrowing tale of Alkemade’s experience, and awarded him a certificate indicating as such. Wow.
