After jumping into the pond, and pulling in another friend with him, Reyno never surfaced. Reyno's jump fatally injured his spine. The other guide jumping was uninjured.
Emergency crews arrived shortly after Reyno's friends pulled his body out of the water, and he died approximately 45 minutes later.
