GoPro video captures moment skydivers collide in mid-air

Two skydivers collided in mid-air over Pasco County in Florida leaving one man paralysed from the waist down.

Go Pro footage has emerged showing two skydivers colliding in mid-air over Pasco County, Florida.

The video was recorded by Sebastian Leal, 23, who had jumped over 400 times before the accident.

Mr Leal collided with another jumper at 14,000ft in the air which caused him to lose consciousness.

He hit several power lines before crashing to the ground; with his emergency parachute only opening at 750ft.

Mr Leal's injuries have now left him paralysed from the waist down.

Despite his injuries, the experienced skydiver is not deterred from jumping again.

"It's a very rare, freak accident; I don't want people to be discouraged. I want them to be inspired to go skydiving."

“I am optimistic that one day I will fly a wing suit again.”
