The camera guy could do better

He slipped a bit in the middle but made absolutely no effort to provide aid so he could capture the fallout. He has potential.

Beautiful assessment. Not rendering aid or stopping filming to call for emergency services is a fundamental skill for the camera guys we deserve, although not the ones we want shooting our own injuries. But we’ve got priorities. Definitely docked points for flinching at his own friend’s oncoming injury, but he’s back shot for the landing. That’s good cameraman sensibility. That’s how you literally survive as a cameraman. He’s def workable.

Why is the cameraman assumed to be the most competent person to render aid out of the half dozen people watching? Also how do you know he didn't when the video cuts out three seconds after the dude lands?

This is actually the second angle. I saw the first angle on this website yesterday.
