The famed skill of George Bennett veter-ap jumper, that had carried him safely to earth after he had leaped from a speeding airplane on 970 -other occasions, failed him before thousands of amusement seekers at Sunnyside Beach at Toronto recent­ ly. Now Bennett lies in hospital in what doct'olrs believe is a dying con­ dition. The lower part of his spine is fractured. His internal injuries are serious, and his body is, badly bruised and cut. Bennett put up a heroic but los­ ing battle when he jumped. Strug­ gling desperately with all the skill at his command, the veteran juniper tried to swing his parachute out over Lake Ontario. The wind car­ ried him though he the chute wires, he pavement inland, however, and al- did manage to manoeuvre over some high tension crashed heavily to the -oh Sunnyside Boulevard after bouncing onto telegraph wires in 1\he middle ■ of the street car tracks. Victim of his own daring Bennett purposely jumped while -- the plane was well inland, he was 'trying to give th’e Crowd something more than the thrpl of an ordinary jump. His intention was. to. laud on the beach and make the crowd scatter in all directions. Lying on a hospital cot, Bennett did not blame the wind, or the para­ chute, or the pilot for the accident. "Don’t blame the pilot; don’t blame the pilot," he moaned, "I jumped too low." Pilot Thomas Gerald Fitton, close friend and partner of the jumper, Said: "George jumped off at a height of 1,400 feet after the mys­ tery girl had jumped from 1,800 feet. Then I circled about, waiting for George to land. He came down on top of the trolley wires and poles between the boulevard tracks, and bounced off the Wires, swinging across, the boulevard to smash into a steel post on the otlier side.” 'According to police, Constable Crawford, who witnessed the land­ ing of Bennett, the. jumper was practically helpless when he drifted over the trolley wires' and was un­ able to do anything .to avoid crash­ ing into an eight-inch protection on the steel standard above the ’Wires. "It was this that caught Bennett square stable. 16 fee." weight to the ground, and in a -minute Ben­ nett’s body rolled off the wires and crashed to the on the back."-’ A few weeks ton took Ken.
