Fig 1 The large arrow represents the force of the wind tunnel. Vertical winds at 160kph (100mph) push the skydiver aloft in a simulation of freefall. Note the position of the arms-shoulder abduction, extension, and external rotation. Also illustrated are (A) the brachial plexus and (B) the musculocutaneous nerve passing through (C) the coracobrachialis muscle. Illustration by Katie and John C. Keel, MD.
