Team of skydivers drop in to help survivors of a plane crash in Wisconsin

Recreational jumpers used their training as paramedics to treat crash victims before ground crews arrived

A team of experienced skydivers recently dropped in to help at a plane crash they happened to witness in Wisconsin – and used their training as paramedics to treat a seriously injured victim before ground-based rescue crews arrived.

The single-engine plane carrying four people crashed in a cornfield near East Troy on Sunday, watched by the occupants of a Skydive Milwaukee aircraft who were preparing for an afternoon of recreational jumping.
