An experienced skydiving instructor plunged to his death without a parachute after getting separated from his student in a freak accident in Tennessee.

The fatal mishap is believed to have unfolded when the harness the pair were wearing got caught on the edge of the plane just as they jumped.
“The instructor is presumed to have fallen from the sky without a parachute,” the Metro Nashville Police Department said.
His body was recovered hours later from a wooded clearing.
