That being said, I fully understand that, even with the safety measures in place, it was considered a high risk activity and I was to be prepared for that.


The risk of death is arguably low. But could be better at the place I referenced, obviously.  Infographic on various activity risks here: https://www.tetongravity.com/story/news/your-chances-of-dying-ranked-by-sport-and-activity 

Keep in mind that death from activites such as skydiving, free climbing, scuba diving etc are generally not covered by life insurance (so if you have kids this is something to include in your risk analysis). Insurers have even been known to deny coverage for those who engage in such activities regardless:  https://www.bankrate.com/insurance/life-insurance/skydivers/
