"On March 26, 2009, Shane McConkey died while skiing in the in Italy. After performing a double back flip, he intended to glide away in his wingsuit, "a stunt he's executed a number of times," according to Matchstick Prod., the company whose films he often starred in. But he struggled to release his skis. By the time he got them off, he'd been free-falling for 12 seconds and was too close to the ground for his wingsuit to do him any good. His parachute did not malfunction; it was never deployed."
