In 1992, Brodsky-Chenfeld survived a plane crash which killed 16 people, including several other members of his skydiving team. He spent six weeks in a coma, with major injuries including a broken neck. Even after the long recovery he was determined to continue skydiving.
In 1994, he co-founded Arizona Airspeed, a skydiving team based at Skydive Arizona. Brodsky-Chenfeld led Airspeed four- and eight-person formation skydiving teams to six World Championships. Brodsky-Chenfeld is also a large formation skydiving world record holder. He has made over 15,000 skydives.

Brodsky-Chenfeld told his story in a memoir: Above All Else: A World Champion Skydiver's Story of Survival and What It Taught Him About Fear, Adversity, and Success. The book tells about his life, accident, recovery, drive to be a world champion, and transformation of the sport of skydiving.
