Original Toronto Star caption: Skydiver Reg Perry; 22; of Sarnia broke his pelvis; an arm and both legs when he opened his parachute too late in a jump from a plane 7;500 feet above Lake Nipissing; and he's lying in a massive cast at St. Joseph's Hospital with his bride; Lu; 18; cheering him up. He's still enthusiastic about skydiving-You really ought to try it - and he hopes to make his living at it.
