Local authorities said Justin was sadly discovered dead in a wooded clearing following the tragic accident on Saturday.
The student miraculously survived the freak incident and was found in a tree with the chute still attached.
It is believed the parachute harness got caught on the side of the plane as they both jumped out.
The Metro Nashville Police Department confirmed his body was recovered some hours later.
It said: “The instructor is presumed to have fallen from the sky without a parachute.”
The tragedy will be probed by the Federal Aviation Administration to determine the cause of the fatal accident.
Tragically, in one of his last social media posts, Justin told how much he loved being a skydiving instructor.
One post read: “Teaching people to skydive has always been in my opinion the most rewarding job at the drop zone.
“Watching them figure it out and start flying their bodies is always a heartwarming moment.
“Sometimes though, it can get a little hectic up there when you let someone go for their first time.”
