The young woman who plummeted 1,000 feet after falling from a hang glider this weekend grabbed desperately at her instructor's feet in a futile attempt to save her self as she slipped out of her harness, it emerged on Sunday.
Lenami Godinez, 27, was trying hang gliding for the first time when the accident occurred Saturday afternoon on Woodside Mountain in British Columbia, Canada. She was flying next to a professional instructor, whom she and her boyfriend had hired to take her up soaring above the trees.
Authorities are blaming either pilot error or equipment failure in the horrifying death. She was found seven hours after she fell, and one of the instructor's shoes was discovered 60ft away from her body.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
