The jumper already has his shoot open. An expert diver with a high
performance shoot could still be going very fast, of course, but in all
likelihood there would be a pretty good delta-v in this case (it looks
like his jumping partner sails past pretty quickly still in free fall).

Do not forget that both meteorite (if genuine) and skydiver were in free
fall, so the vertical speed difference between the two might not have
been that big.
I remain agnostic on this case. Could be true, could be not.
By the way, having recently searched in a forest: even when the area to
search is only a few hundreds of meters wide, it is hell to do.
