Skydiver plummets 10,000 feet after being knocked unconscious mid-jump. At 150 mph speed, she wakes up to see where she was heading: ‘kind of surreal’

Holly Wiffen was three jumps into a good day in the air when her fourth skydive of the day ended in a collision with another jumper moments after she left the plane. The collision on Aug. 7 ended what had been a routine recreational dive and left the 35-year-old unconscious as she fell toward the ground at speeds of up to 150 mph.

According to People, Wiffen, from the town of Okehampton, England, walked through the ordeal this week on the U.K. show This Morning, talking hosts Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley through footage of the jump that she still finds surreal to watch. “It’s really strange to watch it, it doesn’t really feel like me … it’s really strange watching it, it’s kind of surreal,” she said.
