RESCUE ATTEMPT
Rescuers on board a fire department helicopter attempt to save 27-year old Erin Aimee Engle of San Francisco whose parachute failed to open fully during a jump from Mount Brento in the Italian Alps. Engle died while base jumping -- an extreme sport in which people jump from cliffs using parachutes. Photographed July 22, 2001
