What the Hell Theatre - 8/17

Paul Lewis is lucky to be alive after both of his parachutes malfunctioned during a recent jump. The 20 year London skydiving vet was videotaping an amateur jumper when his main chute deployed and then failed at 3,000 feet. His backup chute also failed sending him straight down for nearly a half a mile. Lewis' life was saved when his second chute snagged on the pitched metal roof of an airline hangar. He was suspended in the air for an hour before firefighters could rescue him
