## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

JUMPED OFF SIDE OF A CLIFF. PARACHUTE KEPT HITTING CLIFF UNTIL IT COLLAPSED. NO PARACHUTE MALFUNCTION.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System.

Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
