It was like any Arizona day, as the sunshine was hitting every angle of the earth\u2019s magnificent cliffs and beautiful terrain. And what better way to experience that beautiful geography than to see it while soaring from miles above the ground? When Johnni DiJulius, an experienced cliff jumper, nearly fell to his death after his parachute ripped in mid-air, these cliffs soon turned into more than just a beautiful abstraction as he was forced to grip onto one of these precipices with his bare hands. His incredible story first went viral in 2022 right after it occurred, but has since picked up momentum on the internet thanks to his shocking survival. While hanging from the cliff\u2019s side, DiJulius was able to make a call, letting one of his friends know what had happened and what could potentially occur as he leaned in to free himself from his equipment. DiJulius hung 50 feet above the ground after crashing at 50 MPH DiJulius, who is a stunt man and wrestling coach, was able to use his upper body strength to lift himself up on the cliff that he initially was hanging from. He then was able to call a friend and let him know that he was, as cliff jumpers call it, \u201dHung up.\u201d In an interview with ABC News, DiJulius explained his experience falling 50 MPH above 50 feet of ground, saying, \u201cI ungeared. I was kind of just Spider-Man\u2019d to this wall, right? For like an hour.\u201d Thinking he could climb down, DiJulius said to the friend he phoned, \u201cI can climb down, but I need to ungear. It\u2019s gonna be sketchy.\u201d However, meticulously climbing down was not an option, as he instead fell backward right on his backside. He explained his fall to ABC News as an \u201coh crap\u201d jump, saying, \u201cI just freaking huck it, land on my back on this bush. I couldn\u2019t really turn around.\u201d Those who have seen DiJulius\u2019s survival story have taken to Twitter to comment on his \u201cNO TMRW\u201d helmet, saying, \u201cDude is manifesting this \u201cno tmrw\u201d mantra. Even his damn screensaver is it.\u201d And, \u201cHe deada*s almost didn\u2019t see a tomorrow.\u201d Though it was a significantly close call, DiJulius miraculously did not sustain any injuries. He\u2019s previously jumped off skyscrapers, wing-walked on planes, and also had experience with cliff jumping before his 2022 accident that has now, once again, gone viral for its alarming content.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Man\u2019s parachute rips as he falls towards cliff in near-death experience Twitter: shannonsharpeeeExperienced cliff jumper, Johnni DiJulius, nearly fell to his death after his parachute ripped in mid-air.
