Data:Parachuting
Data from studies on skydiving and BASE jumping.
This could be further refined: skydiving seems to be getting safer over time, with fewer injuries/deaths reported in more recent years. The big skydiving systemic review used here uses statistics from years ago.
Other ways to slice the data might be useful, too-- for example, if there are statistics on tandem diving with an experienced skydiver, or wing-suit flying, or first-time-solo jumps those could be interesting variations to list.
