By a queer freak of fate, La Wand was saved from certain death among the high voltage wires, roof tops and trees when the parachute slowly settled into a tiny patch of clear ground - barely big enough for the parachute and the only safe landing place within considerable distance. This picture shows La Wand (left) and aviator Frank Sheltz, who piloted the plane from which La Wand jumped photographed just after the near-catastrophe.'
