From the evidence already 'collected by the investigators showed that the parachute Taricone is open regularly after a launch from a height of 1500-2000 meters.

Then back to share with a turbo propeller aircraft Cesna caravans along with seven other companions including his wife, who in turn, in recent months, had had an accident, always with the parachute, go out unscathed. Taricone jumped first, and - said one of the members of the school Gordius - about one thousand and 200 meters, regularly open the parachute wing. A hundred meters from the ground the plaintiff had to commence operations to slow down the speed from landing in sight instead - even those who reported witnessing what happened - were put in place only 20 meters from the ground. Why, it happened to clarify the ongoing inquiry. Taricone is still crashed violently. It 'was promptly cared for locally by 118 ambulance staff and the board has revived after a cardiac arrest. Without that resumption never know, the former contestant of Big Brother, was also transported to the hospital escorted by a police patrol who acted as courier to the rescue vehicle. The situation appeared serious to doctors immediately. Taricone had in fact reported several fractures, trauma to the skull, face and pelvis. The doctors had also found bleeding in the head and abdomen.
E 'was then immediately operated. Then, death.
