Crater

There he was. And in front of him was a huge black crater, its depth seemingly unfathomable. Richard was a sky-diver had he had taken up the challenge of diving into the deepest meteor crater in Arizona desert.  Thousands of people were there to see it, their hearts beating rapidly as they waited for him to jump. After taking one deep breath, Richard jumped. Mid way through his diving apparatus got entangled and everyone braced themselves for a tragedy. He landed with minimal injury. Yet when he was finally pulled up, it was found that he had died somewhere in between. Reports stated that he had died of an unanticipated cause of scarcity of Oxygen in the crater.
