Members of the World Team join together in a missing man formation during a jump over Eloy, Ariz., Thursday, April 3, 2014, after one of the group died during a jump earlier in the day. The accident occurred as the group tried to set a world record by forming two distinct aerial formations within the same dive earlier Thursday morning. Skydive Arizona blamed the accident on a malfunctioning parachute that was released too low to the ground to allow a reserve parachute to fully open. (AP Photo/World Team, Henny Wiggers)
