SMH story:

A skydiving instructor who plunged to earth when both his parachutes failed, says his last words before impact were: "Shit, I'm going to die". Michael Holmes, 25, went into a spin when his main parachute became tangled during a 4,000m drop over Taupo in New Zealand last week, but survived when he landed in a blackberry bush.

I guess that's better than a hard landing, but still...

Exercise since last: 30km, total 520km/312mi: third day from Weathertop.

Er, well, at least he lived to tell about it?

Then again, I expect the most common last words in the world are "Oh, shit."


"Hey Mate/Bubba/Guys, watch this!" is probably a close second ;)

I always thought it was "Hold my beer and watch this!"

Ditto the previous comments.
