A parachutist crashed into the turf at the Sydney Cricket Ground as he attempted to deliver the match ball for an Aussie Rules game.
The paratrooper from the Australian Navy Red Beret jumpers appeared to be descending very quickly before his feet hit the ground and he hurtled forward.
He was knocked unconscious but came to as he was placed on to a stretcher by medics.
A waiting ambulance took him to hospital for further examination and treatment.
He is believed to have suffered a broken pelvis.
Two other parachutists had previously landed safely.
The accident delayed the Anzac Day match between Sydney Swans and West Coast by 10 minutes.
Anzac Day commemorates the first major battle involving Australian and New Zealand troops in World War One.
