Skydiver killed after falling without parachute in Nashville
The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating the death of a skydiving instructor after he became separated from his student during a jump in Nashville, Tennessee.
Police say instructor Justin Fuller "is presumed to have fallen from the sky without a parachute" during the jump on Saturday.
The 35-year-old appeared to have separated from his client and a tandem rig, which connects two people during a jump and contains their parachute.
A police helicopter found Mr Fuller's body in a wooded area hours later. The Nashville Fire Department used several ladders to reach his 46-year-old client, who survived the fall after being trapped on a tree for hours with the emergency parachute.
