Tragic Death: British BASE Jumper's Fatal 29-Story Fall in Thailand

TL;DR Summary
British BASE jumper Nathy Odinson, 33, fell to his death in Thailand after his parachute failed to open during a 29-story leap from a hotel roof in Pattaya. Eyewitnesses heard a thud as he hit a tree and then the ground. Odinson's friend, who helped him access the rooftop, reported that the parachute string was snagged after he jumped.
