Sky Hawks by

Taken at the 2009 Trenton Air Show in Ontario, Canada

Three Sky Hawk parachutists linked together. If you look closely, two are holding on to each other only by their very strong legs, while the third hangs on to the other two by handles on their gear.
Extremely dangerous and exhilarating..took my breath away!

Taken with a Nikon D90 with a Nikon 70-300MM lens.

Sky Hawks makes the top 10 in the Red White and Blue Challenge of A Beautiful Blur group.

    omg! my stomach just did a major flip flop!!!! this is wickedly cool!!!! Amazing shot Debbie!!!!

  • I know exactly what you mean….my stomach did the same thing!
    They literally did a free fall dropping like a stone until the last second when they split apart and landed separately and safely. It was truly amazing!
    Thanks so much for you “wickedly cool” remark…gotta love it!
