Joan Murray (skydiver)

Joan Murray (born 1952) is an American bank executive and skydiver who survived falling from a height of 14,500 feet (4400 meters).
Murray lives in Charlotte, North Carolina and worked for Bank of America. She occasionally skydived before her accident. On September 25, 1999,〔 she went on a skydive from 4400 meters. Her main parachute could not open, and although her backup parachute opened at 200 meters, it quickly deflated. She approached the ground at 81 miles per hour (130 kilometers per hour), landing on a mound of fire ants. Doctors believe that the shock of being stung over 200 times by the ants released a surge of adrenaline which kept her heart beating.〔
Murray suffered serious injuries, shattering the right side of her body and knocking fillings out of her teeth. She went into a coma for two weeks at Carolinas Medical Center,〔 but survived after 20 reconstructive surgeries and 17 blood transfusions.〔 She continued work at Bank of America after the accident, turning down retirement because of disability. She took physical therapy sessions and went on a 37th skydive with her two daughters, Arriane and Carmen,〔 in 2001.〔
