   Description: This jump was performed during the filming of a (non-skydiving) movie, the deceased was working as a stuntman. He was being filmed exiting a helicopter at 1700ft near a large cliff face holding the PC with a dummy rigged to him. On exit, the PC entaged with the dummy (or him), He cut away the dummy and deployed reserve too late. Impacted the cliff before full reserve inflation and fell to the ground. He was killed instantly. The exit was at 1700ft. Conflicting reports indicate he exitted 1100 ft above the rockfall at the bottom of the cliff, the helicopter was 200-300 ft above the cliff top, failed to cutaway the dummy, and that he impacting the rockfall rather than the cliff face.
   Lessons:An exceptional skydive implies an exceptional risk. The bell curve can catch anyone.
