There was a skydiver back in the 70's that had a mid air seizure before opening the chute. **** Grove. In Illinois.


Edit: His first name was censored. Nickname for Richard. Lol
 
If you decide to sue yourself, do you win or lose?
 
Mmm I had an explanation of how it'd make sense but nvm...it definitely doesn't. If suing herself she would get his insurance money, but wouldn't she get it anyway?

I have no idea, and how do you pay the settlement, and what if the settlement is more than what you have

Before or after opening the chute?

He had it before opening the chute. Someone jumping with him noticed he was seizing and drifted over to him and pulled his cable. The skydiver regained consciousness 3,000 feet about of the ground and landed safely.

My thoughts exactly.
 
Insurance probly wouldn't pay so she, as the victim's estate, is suing the driver, represented by her insurance company.
 
So I went around 15 years without breaking, losing or damaging a cell phone. Yesterday I drop my iphone and it breaks- repaired like new for $80. 4 hours later I spill an entire glass of water over the same phone and its broken again. I wonder is this going to be the start of an interesting week...I'm considering just using semaphore or morse code in future.
 
I need a new phone, too. Finally cracked my iPhone 4. I don't care enough to fix it. For future reference, replacing a screen is extremely easy to do buy yourself. Costs like 20 for parts.

And parts are finally coming in :D got my clutch perch, mirrors, stator cover in. I somehow forgot to order levers though. Which is kinda a big deal. Another week before I can order it and a week more shipping.
It's so close to being ready again! Still need a helmet though. And my girly isn't letting me ride without being all the gear now, so I have to buy boots and pants of some sort. I figured I'll just buy a two piece suit and call it. Started to complain about having to wear pants when I'm going 3/4 of a mile to work. She kindly pointed out that that was where I was going when I went down originally. No more argument. Hahah
I'm so ready for the bike to be ready.
 
She sounds like a great GF!! I want a bike too, hopefully this summer and will invest in all the protective gear cuz people be crazy!
 
Looking forward to near 56 degrees tomorrow, then 32 for a low Hahahahah. This weather is ridiculous.
 
In the last month I have lost two friends to suicide. I think maybe I'm not such a great friend. (Sorry to be a Debbie Downer)

Don't blame yourself and don't play "what ifs". Those people made a choice to do what they did.
 
What the **** is this wet stuff coming from the sky?

Very long story but she's not my gf. Hahhawe've been seeing each other for a year this month but never been official. Like I said. Long story. Hahaha
Anyways, point of actual relevance. That's what I said too. I started off wearing everything, including Kevlar jeans and A* boots. Gradually lost the jeans just for ease of not having to change at work. Then lost the boots so I didn't have to carry a spare pair of shoes. Make sure you actually wear it.
What type of bike are you looking at?
