For jumps intentionally make near a body of water, the skydiver is required to have a flotation device in his possession. Otherwise, you climb out of the harness and swim to safety. If that can't be accomplished then the skydiver may likely drown. Or in the case of bodies of water in Kansas, you would simply stand up.

Statistically water is more dangerous than skydiving. Ironically fishing causes more fatalities than skydiving.
