DULUTH, Minn. (FOX 9) - A hard landing at the Duluth Airshow sent a parachutist with the U.S. Navy Leap Frog team to the hospital on Saturday.

Video obtained by FOX 21 in Duluth shows the parachutist performing a trick with another Navy performer. Holding each other by the legs, it appears the two separate too low to the ground and causes a crash.
