- Reason
- Time-lapse photo of a reserve canopy malfunction. This is not a recent or a high pixel count photo, but it does a good job of showing a rare and dangerous malfunction when a reserve canopy opens while the main canopy is still working. For details see the article's image caption as well as the section "Two canopies out".

- Comment - My first impression was of three parachutists... the timelapse is not immediately apparent. Furthermore, the sequence really doesn't make clear what and how it happened... --Janke | Talk 12:08, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose – Per Janke. Confusing. Visual information is not readily intelligible to general readers/viewers. – Sca (talk) 13:47, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose – Agree with Janke and Sca. I find it hard to understand what's going on here. Choliamb (talk) 15:34, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
