Civil Plaintiff
Man Files Lawsuit, Alleges Negligence After Indoor Skydiving Accident Leaves Him Quadriplegic
A local law office will file an amended complaint Tuesday on behalf of a Palos Park man who was rendered quadriplegic after an indoor skydiving incident in January 2021.
According to the amended complaint, David Schilling, 63, was participating in an indoor skydiving activity at iFly in Rosemont on Jan. 21, 2021 when he became clearly unstable and instructors and spotters in charge of Schilling’s safety failed to intervene and protect him.
Schilling then crashed into a wall at the iFly facility and was rendered quadriplegic, no longer having the ability to move any of his limbs or body from the neck down.
