It’s the most gut-wrenching, mesmerising and shocking clip of video footage imaginable.
Shot from the tiny camera in the helmet of champion skydiver Michael Holmes, it records with chilling clarity what happened when he plummeted 12,000ft to earth.
There is the moment when he tugs his ripcord and discovers his parachute won’t open. There are the frantic efforts to release it, made as he spins so fast that movement is almost impossible.
