A potentially interesting factor to consider is the number of incidents off terminal cliffs. Didn't see it in this doc. I think Abbie put something together (and I know others have in the past) that quantified those. You can probably figure that out yourself, too, by looking at the location. In any case, I recall that number being a bit heavier than the others.
The reason I say this is interesting to consider is that with the relative accessibility of terminal cliffs (especially outside the US) and publicity of awe-inspiring proximity flying, we're attracting more jumpers. The general thought among newbies is that with that much air, it's tough to fuck it up. Obviously we've seen that this is not the case. Of course, I also think that terminal cliffs see more jumps than any other objects worldwide. I know that might not add up or apply to all crews when you look at it at the local level, but it seems an accurate statement on a global scale.

Thanks!
I had created a spreadsheet with pivot tables and graphs analysing the list a few years back, but sadly lost it when fired from my job and left it on the work PC (yes I used work time to create it, and funnily enough I was fired (sorry paid off) after a BASE accident had me off work for 7 months and I said I would jump again)....
When I get some time (and a place to live), I will try and get my accounting geek self back on to it and try and create something...... unless someone else has done similar?
As C says, I know there are many people doing their own analysis, so perhaps not to repeat previous work??
