Skydiver Daniel Herndon was performing a demonstration flight over Taft Stadium in Oklahoma City on Tuesday, June 28, when he lost his main parachute. He managed to finish the flight with the reserve parachute and successfully land on the field, bringing the ball to be used in Chivas and Oklahoma City Energy FC match. His GoPro camera captured the whole moment, from the tension of having a trapped parachute to the safe landing.

Herndon lost part of his equipment during the incident and created a crowdfund campaign to help him replace it. Credit: Facebook/Daniel Herndon
