As a skydiver was about to land, an 87 year old pilot and WWII veteran was doing what's called touch and go drills. That's when they collided! It was all witnessed by Tim Telford who took some amazing pictures!

Touch and go drills are when you touch down and then immediately take off again. That's what 87 year old Shannon Trembley was doing when the front of his plane cut the parachutes strings.

Remarkably both the pilot and the skydiver will be fine with just minor injuries.  Minor!!
