A barophobic skydiver, someone who fears gravity or weight, might be terrified by the thought of free-falling through the sky without the immediate security of solid ground. The sensation of weightlessness during freefall can trigger intense anxiety, as they grapple with the loss of control and the overwhelming force of gravity pulling them down. Additionally, any malfunction with the parachute or an unexpected change in altitude could amplify their fears, making the experience even more daunting.
Main and Reserve

He will most likely be killed by the hard impact under a partially/non-inflated reserve.
The skydiver pulls out a pilot chute and releases it . The pilot chute then inflates and pulls the main canopy out of the pack, allowing it to open. This is how a sports skydiver opens his main parachute. Reserve parachutes are kept closed by a small pin holding a loop closed, and pulling a ripcord connected to this pin starts the deployment process. A spring loaded pilot chute is released, which inflates and pulls out the reserve parachute in a way similar to the main chute. This system is more reliable than the process used to pack the main parachute, but it is less convenient, and takes much longer to pack.

They had a chute out!
The shape of the displacement versus time graph for a skydiver would be a curve that starts at zero displacement when the skydiver jumps out of the plane, increases as the skydiver falls accelerating due to gravity, and eventually levels off as the skydiver reaches terminal velocity. The curve will then be a straight line at a constant displacement representing the terminal velocity until the skydiver opens the parachute, at which point the displacement will decrease as the skydiver slows down and lands.
