Date: July 1,, 2016 Nationality: Serbian

Object Type: Earth
Location: Casale, Italy
COD: Low Pull
Clothes / Suit: Wingsuit / V3
Gear / Parachute: tbd
Age: tbd
Experience: 3500+, tandem/AFF, 100 WS
Time of day: tbd

Description:

Jumper exited solo, last of load of 5 from Casale near Brento in perfect weather conditions around midday. Equipment, a PF V3 purchased recently to fill the time gap waiting for his Freak. This was the last planned jump of this trip, and thus the last planned jump on this suit.

Jumper was highly experienced skydiver, 3500+, tandem and AFF, but only around 100 WS, almost all P3.
Jumper put only 2 skydives on the V3 before taking it to the mountain.
In previous days he did 12 BASE jumps, 11 from Brento, one yesterday from Casale, but straight out from exit.
Many of his Brento jumps were not very good, rather unsteady.

However two steady straight out jumps yesterday, one Brento and one Casale, gave him confidence....

Today he chose to exit and turn round to the left, taking him over the most flown line over some ridges, to then turn 180 right toward main landing in soccer field where other jumpers were waiting.
Jumper exited well, but shortly after making a gentle left turn he began to try to plane the suit out to stay above the terrain, rather than turning out towards safer ground.
Jumper pulled the suit progressively shallower, over a period of 10-15 seconds, until severe lateral instability set in and he was dropping out. He kept it flying this way for a bit longer, and then realized too late he was in deep shit.

Jumper pitched but impacted the last of the ridges before inflated canopy, dying on impact.
As he had option of going straight, and using alternative landing, other jumpers waited for him at soccer field as planned, after some time passed and he was unreachable by phone they went to alternative landing and called rescue after seeing no sign of him (approx. 90 mins after jump).

Rescue located jumper quickly but he was dead at scene.
Jumper was wearing Rhino cam, footage clearly shows the above...

Description:

JVH Incident Report - Brevent - 29 Jun 2016
On the cable car ride up to Brevent, JVH and another jumper decided to do a two way, JVH would follow in whichever line the other jumper wanted to fly. The other jumper proposed the rockstar line, which JVH had followed him on once previously. They then discussed exit positions and angles, and flight procedures for when someone is "camera flying". (Jumper on the left jumps first, pushes more perpendicular to the rock, takes the turn around the pilar wide, and flies at 70-80% in the transition before turning it on and entering the line. Jumper on the right exits second, and pushes parallel to or at slightly more of an angle than the first jumper, then cuts the corner so as to catch up to the first jumper as quickly as possible.) JVH expressed that he would not be following closely behind though, instead he would give a couple seconds and follow loosely to just observe the other jumper flying the line. On previous multi-ways on Brevent, JVH had given at least 1-2 seconds before following off, and would not fly aggressively, usually staying above the treetops.

At the top, as they were gearing up, since JVH didn't want to follow closely anyway, the other jumper asked which side he preferred to exit from. JVH chose the right, so the other jumper took the left. The other jumper then proposed that since John didn't need to catch up to him, he would exit off and fly the line as he usually would without a camera flyer, and John agreed. Although on the way up they had discussed exit angles from these positions when the jumper on the right is flying camera, there was no further discussion at the exit regarding exit angles.

The first jumper makes his countdown and pushes off with nothing out of the ordinary. JVH jumps approximately 1.5 seconds after, and basically pushes to the same axis as the first jumper. About 4 seconds into his jump he hits the first jumper's burble. There is some shaking and a clear loss of power, and he swerves slightly left by about 10 degrees. John makes two grunts, likely realizing that he is in trouble. At a pitch (AoA) "nose up" he turns very quickly right, about 90 degrees, and decides to try to fly it out. Shortly after his pitch and direction change, at around 7-8 seconds, we hear what sounds like leg wing flapping. He doesn't advance more than 120m horizontally from the point where he turned, and impacts 10 seconds into his jump in the snow in the bottom of the couloir.
