IMPACT

Synopsis

"IMPACT" is a film that tells the powerful story of two skydivers, Mark Lucchiari and Ben Lucock, and their journey to recovery after a near-fatal accident.

Based in South Coast Queensland, both Mark and Ben are experienced jumpers, but their lives changed forever when they collided in freefall during a jump in Byron Bay.

The accident left Ben with critical injuries to his knee requiring multiple surgeries, and Mark was left unconscious for the remainder of the freefall. His life was saved by an automated activation device (AAD) which deployed his reserve parachute only a few hundred feet from the ground.

The road to recovery, both mentally and physically, has been a long journey for both men. But through it all, they have become close friends, and they want to share their story with the world.

This film follows Mark and Ben on their road to recovery, highlighting the importance of mental health, family, recovery, and friendship. It is a story of hope, resilience, and the power of the human spirit to overcome even the toughest of obstacles.
