Jonathan Bishop was landing at the Orroral Valley in Namadgi National Park when the animals came in to say hello or probably go back. The 35-year old was landing from his parachute when he did acknowledge the hello but it soon turned the animal pushing him to the ground. Bishop thought it would be a friendly encounter and is heard saying, "What's up Skip?" But the kangaroo pounced upon him which left him swearing at the animal to go away. There was another kangaroo nearby who preferred watching from a distance as if his mate would need help for a further attack on the man.
