Got these in an email. quite a few but small files.
The photographer needs a medal for them. Doubt they could be photoshopped.

Apparently not big injuries but spectacular shots of the action.

Thanks for posting. Great shots - but what in the world were the officials doing allowing aircraft to take off while parachutist were coming down?

Looks like the skydiver faired better than the plane.

Fantastic photos.
