STORY HIGHLIGHTS

• Skydiving planes collide over Wisconsin; one crashes
• The pilot and his passengers all parachuted to safety
• "It's definitely a reminder of the danger of the sport that we all love," instructor says

(CNN) -- A weekend midair collision over northern Wisconsin sent one small plane careening into the ground while another limped safely back to the runway.

Fortunately, both planes were carrying skydivers -- meaning that for the 11 people aboard the two aircraft, the collision resulted in nothing more than minor injuries to two of them, firefighters reported.

"It's definitely a reminder of the danger of the sport that we all love," Skydive Superior instructor Mike Robinson told CNN affiliate KQDS.
