Two skydivers have narrowly escaped being hit by the airplane they jumped from in Bangkok.

An Asian woman and instructor Forest Pullman, from Thai Sky Adventure Company, jumped from the airplane strapped together.

Pullman saw the airplane flying toward them and twirled to get out of its way.

Pullman said, as quoted by Metro, “The pilot dove the airplane 180 degrees right at me and my tandem passenger. How we got so lucky? Not sure.”

A video camera attached to the parachute recorded the incident.
