Parachute video needed

[Team Sergeant]

All,

I need a short video of a parachutist having a rough landing, nothing graphic, no death videos, just hard landings. Thanks,

Team Sergeant

Will any of these do?

The first one is fairly graphic as the dude hits the ground you can hear his leg break and then you can see it dangling on backwards.

Little slow starting but nice double-flip landing:

Face plant into truck (apparently walked away):

Base jump off of a dam and his canopy drives into the dam on opening..............he slides rapidly to the point of gravitational attraction!!

OUCH, and I bet that it left a mark, if he lived!!

I'm guessing the DH-6 pilot had more trouble landing than the jumper.

Nahhh..I'm very familiar with the Twatter!! After the jumper cut away, the A/C landed without incident!!

Same video might be easier.

So did that guy just lose hold of his drogue or was that an equipment malf?

I wish there had been a camera recording some of my landings, you could have used them. And explained to them why "CB" also stands for "crash and burn."

All who remember driving a Competition PC (or an MC1-1) downwind into the pit, raise your hand.

Or hook turns with a 24" shortlined MK-1 PC, hopefully, into the peas!!!:D

Ah yes, the MC1-1B semi steerable - but when I went through Airborne we had to make 2 jumps with a T-10, you had to climb the MFing risers to get it to turn (pardon me, 'slip', not turn) even a little bit - anybody else remember that?

Damn, I've only been gone for a few months and already miss it (so different from being a Cadet now, its like going back to basic, but worse, lol). That's a good mix of older (2001 and prior for a lot of the live fire and the first mass tac [which looks like a JRTX jump for All American Week]) and new (all of the Division Review scenes were from this past May 2006, first time we did it in ACUs).

I am definitely hoping to get branched Infantry and assigned back to the 82nd as a PL when I graduate next year... And then move out from there.

[Team Sergeant]

Doc T is going to use the video for a medical "talk".

Thanks for all those that responded so far, keep them coming!

TS- After the video portion, are you going to be the live show and tell? "This is proof that parachuting doesn't have to be dangerous....."

[Ambush Master]

His hand-deploy got into the wind and he soon followed!!! Not really an equipment malfunction.......it did what it was designed to do. He just didn't either secure/stow it properly or guard it !!!

Man, does that term bring back memories, not necessarily good ones. Fortunately they didn't have video at Raeford in 1972 when I "hanked" in from about 50 feet trying to do downwind accuracy wth a brand new Comp PC (a US Team canopy I got from Chuck Collingwood). The hank was a nifty 270 degrees from about 50 feet and I did a crosswind butt-strike (stretching to the disc) and was rewarded with compression fracture of L1 and T12 which Womack diagnosed as "just muscle spasms". Oh those were the days, at least until squares came on the scene, although I saw some incredible hanks under squares. Dave D-4287.

Funny you should mention that jump, its the same mechanism of injury Doc T explained to me concerning her talk. I've always heard it as a "hook turn". Not something one should attempt at low altitudes......:rolleyes:

TS,

Did not realize that you would also use Skydiving vids. Try this site.

Skydiving Movies (http://www.skydivingmovies.com/ver2/pafiledb.php).

Your best bet is probably the category called Landing and Swooping.

Have to get a log in / password, but then you can download the videos.

(Man...you guys are old school...:D, and people looked at me like I was crazy when I jumped a 4-pin & belly mount with a Papillon for a goof - It had a sleeve...But I did go through the BAC when they were still teaching the H-Harness)

[LongWire]

Here's one that's really messed up........this guys AFF Instructors did him no favors if you watch it in detail..........Either that or he was a really Bad student...........
