A SKYDIVER has died after jumping out of a plane in Florida.
The accident happened near an airpark in Titusville, about 41 miles from Orlando, Florida on Saturday.


On Saturday afternoon, the Titusville Fire Department confirmed that they responded to the call around 12.25pm on X, formerly known as Twitter.
A helicopter was sent to the scene, as well as police officials.
Law enforcement described the man as being outfitted in parachute attire and gear.
They confirmed that he landed on lawn of a residence on the 2600 block of Merry Lane.
The man was pronounced dead on the scene.
James Sconiers told local outlet News 6 that it was his front yard where the man landed, per Click Orlando.
“I was asking the person that was laying on the ground hey man can you hear me, can you hear me… but he did not answer,” Sconiers recalled.

Sconiers is a Vietnam veteran with airborne paratrooper experience.
He said the incident has left him with questions.
A neighbor captured a video of the skydiver landed on their property’s surveillance camera.
“Look at the video and look at what happened, why did he fall so hard if all the safety mechanism in place, something tells me there’s a problem there,” Sconiers said.
Titusville Police detectives have confirmed in a Tweet that they’re now investigating the incident.
“This remains an ongoing investigation and more details will be released upon its conclusion,” police said in a statement on its website.
The name of the victim has not been released.
