Anthony Martin, Escape Artist, Faces Coffin Skydive At 14,500 Feet In Illinois A United States (US) daredevil parachuted gently into field on Tuesday after managing to free himself from shackles and a locked coffin while plummeting through the air.
Anthony Martin waved to the cameras and the crowd that turned out to watch his stunt after he landed in Serena, Illinois, about 112km south-west of Chicago.
After being dragged from a plane at about 4,400m up, the coffin whipped wildly from side-to-side with Martin inside. One of the two skydivers who were steadying the box was hit in the face, but everyone landed safely.
