Group of 20 skydivers perform dazzling displays with deployed parachutes at 100mph

Incredible footage shows a group of 20 skydivers setting a “new benchmark” for parachute formation flying as they performed dazzling displays in the sky – at 100mph. The thrill-seekers can be seen passing each other in dangerously close proximity while dropping from 14,000ft – all after their parachutes were deployed. Led by British skydiving veteran Pete Allum, the team of experienced jumpers from across the world created the stunning synchronised formations in Florida, USA. The daredevils performed x-formations, smoke fly-throughs and high-speed 120mph fly-pasts to set new standards in canopy flight not seen before previously. The discipline of canopy flight or “canopy flocking” is said to be fairly new as most skydive formations take place before parachutes are deployed. British pro skydiving instructor Andy Ford captured the breathtaking footage and said the group had set a new benchmark for this form of skydiving.
