The Tragic Story of Franz Reichelt and His Failed Parachute Suit Jump from the Eiffel Tower Franz Reichelt, an Austrian-born French tailor, inventor, and parachuting pioneer, died while testing his parachute suit by jumping off the Eiffel Tower in 1912. Reichelt had become fixated on developing a suit for aviators that would convert into a parachute and allow them to survive a fall should they be forced to leave their aircraft in mid-air. Despite numerous efforts to dissuade him, Reichelt was adamant about taking the jump himself. The parachute failed to deploy, and he plunged 187 ft (57 m) to his death. This video tells the tragic story of Franz Reichelt and his failed parachute suit jump from the Eiffel Tower.

Der Regen ließ im Tagesverlauf nach, die Sonne kam zum Abend heraus und auch der Wind war so stark, wie lange nicht mehr bei der Mittwochsregatta. Das Feld schob sich dicht zusammen und auf dem 2. Raumwindkurs gaben die Segelyachten unter Spinaker, Genaker oder Code Zero ihr bestes, um nicht aus dem Ruder zu laufen. Bei noch 2 verbleibenden Wettfahrten sieht es für die hier abgebildete J-88 Nemo mit dem 3. Platz in der Tageswertung recht gut im Kampf um den Gesamtsieg der diesjährigen Rennserie aus. Ggf. ist es aufgrund möglicher Streicher schon entschieden, wer das genau wissen möchte, muss sich die Gesamtergebnisliste bei https://www.wscev.de/MitReg/2023 oder bei manage2sail ansehen und mal den Taschenrechner bemühen. Ein knappes Fotofinish mit dem 2. Platz in der Tageswertung für J-97 Monk (hier nicht im Bild) bedeutet das vorläufig beste Saisonresultat. Und natürlich Glückwunsch dem Tagessieger SY ASPASIA.
