A parachuter slammed into Virginia Tech’s scoreboard, leaving the stuntman dangling high above a shocked crowd and delaying the school’s spring game Saturday afternoon.
Terrifying footage shows two parachuters with American flags attached to them, gliding across Virginia Tech’s home football stadium.
The two dare devils appeared to be on the same flight trajectory — with the first parachuter, carrying a smaller flag, flying over the video board safely.
The second parachuter, however, appeared to have caught some wind on their descent, causing a dramatic collision right into the massive C of “Tech.”
The game, slated for 3 p.m. kick-off, was delayed for over an hour as emergency personnel deployed a crane to rescue the stuck parachuter.
The jumper’s parachute appeared to get stuck between the letters ‘C’ and ‘H’ — ripping off the covering and exposing the lights beneath.
The parachuter dropped their American flag, along with a smaller parachute, into the stands below as they were suspended mid-air on the sign.
The parachuter was successfully rescued 45 minutes later, On3 reported.
