“The skydiver released a quickly rotating main parachute at a low altitude without the time/altitude required for the reserve parachute to inflate,” the company added in a statement, but few other details about the accident are known.
Pardazi had recently begun taking skydiving lessons.
“The jumper was a welcomed recent addition to the sky diving community and will be missed amongst the student’s new friends and fellow jumpers of Skydive Toronto Inc,” the statement continued. “The team at Skydive Toronto Inc has been profoundly affected by this accident as they have refined their student training program for over 50 years.”
The South Simcoe Police Service has teamed up with the Office of the Chief Coroner to investigate the circumstances surrounding Pardazi’s death.
Pardazi had over 100,000 followers on TikTok and had been studying philosophy at the University of Toronto when she passed away.
The funeral for Pardazi was held on Friday
