The main parachute did not open and the reserve chute only partially opened. The divers began to spin and hit the ground at about 20 miles per hour. Enney died at the hospital from internal injuries, while Gifford was also seriously injured but survived. (Davis Enterprise, June 25, 2002)<br> - <br> - On April 18, 1998, Seth Blake, age 28 and a resident of Sacramento, and his student Stephanie Cotter, age 26 and also of Sacramento, both died in a tandem jump. According to FAA records, Blake accidentally deployed the reserve chute first and it became entangled with the main chute. Blake's blood alcohol level was 0.04, which was half of the legal limit for driving; and he also had trace amounts of marijuana. (Sacramento Bee, April 19, 1998, and August 30, 1998)<br> - <br> - On August 21, 1987, a female skydiver from Oakland (name not released), age 27, died in a solo jump with her own equipment. Her main parachute did not open, while her reserve chute became entangled with her arm and leg. (Sacramento Bee, August 22, 1987)<br> - <br> - On July 26, 1987, Allan Bergstein, age 27 and a member of the Danish national skydiving team, died in a mid-air collision in a team jump. He was knocked unconscious and could not deploy his chute. The other jumper broke his leg in the collision. A third jumper in the same dive chased Bergstein down to 1,000 feet to open his chute for him, but he had to abandon the attempt for his own safety.
