I can almost bet that one of the hazards that sky-divers don't consider every time they jump is the likely-hood of getting hit by solar system debris.

The odds of being hit by a meteorite while skydiving are up there with winning the lottery. It is more likely that your parachute would fail. Anyhow, just another reason not to jump out of a perfectly good airplane.
I would agree that the odds are high on getting hit while sky diving. It is even more improbable that it was caught on camera! I know it is common for divers to have a camera, it is just when you add it all up it is so wildly improbable as to make my head spin. It is a once in a lifetime shot though btonym
