I have a small ascii collection of "stickmen," which portrait my hobbies
and interests such as:
    ,_ o                                                              \
   /  //\,          o         o_    \ >        __o                   o/\_
     \>> |         /~>       <| '  ,_|       _'\<,_        _        <\__,\
      \\,       o...(\       / >     o)     (_)/_(_)     ___\o_      "\,  |
                                                         ~~~~~~
Could someone please post or come up with a "skydiver"?
Thanks in advance!  :)

Thanks!  It looks concise and great..
But I was rather hoping for one without the chute.  (free-fall "spyder" form)
Do you suppose (or anyone else) there is one out there?

Thanks again.

How about a side-on view? ... or a 3D oblique view?

                                        | /
       o>=_/`                       ,  @"/ 
                                    `-O--'


And here's Gary's effort after the chute lines fail to open properly......

Oh no!  Can no-one save Stickman this time?


Fig.2


   ((((( SPLUT!!!! )))))


Guess not, so now he's pavement pizza (skydivers term it 'bouncing',
although it's not an apt description really).

Of course he can be saved...
Didn't you see the second chute on his belly?

So, Garry get's rid of his main chute and and pull
the handdle of his belly chute. Thay's it.

Now garry's got an other scarry story to tee
his grandchildren.  :D
