QUOTE(aminpro @ Nov 7 2013, 04:59 PM) It seems that they guy was too worried in following procedure such as putting his hand on his head and doing nothing plus worrying too much about his helmet. that's how its supposed to be.this type of situation is called a towed parachutist he followed his training and put his hands on his head so not to get more tangled with his line or chute and showed the jump master he's still conscious. these kind of accidents happen more than people think,either 1)the jump master use a winch to pull the soldier inside or 2)cut the soldier's line so the soldier can deploy his reserve. the jumpmaster is at fault,he didn't cut the soldier's line quick enough.unfortunately for the soldier,his reserve chute did not work. |

One more thing I wonder is why are they going to lower altitude? It's not like they are going to land the plane, dragging the guy on the whole runway. |

QUOTE(aminpro @ Nov 7 2013, 08:20 PM) I see. maybe they tried to untangle the main chute and going to lower altitude to reduce the wind resistance,I dunno lol.the whole thing is f***ed upOne more thing I wonder is why are they going to lower altitude? It's not like they are going to land the plane, dragging the guy on the whole runway. static line jumps are usually done at low altitude(800-600)ft the pilot was actually climbing so that the soldier had time to fix his rig but the jumpmaster didn't cut the static line at the right time,the soldier didn't have time to deploy his reserve the plane doesn't look like a C-130,looks like a beat up old C-47 This post has been edited by heavyduty: Nov 7 2013, 08:37 PM |

QUOTE(heavyduty @ Nov 7 2013, 08:30 PM) static line jumps are safely done at 3500ft and are dangerous at higher altitudes oooo the pilot was actually climbing so that the soldier had time to fix his rig but the jumpmaster didn't cut the static line at the right time,the soldier didn't have time to deploy his reserve the plane doesn't look like a C-130,looks like a beat up old C-47 |

I dont think he has enuf time to skydive to release the chute.he followed his training and put his hands on his head so not to get more tangled with his line or chute and showed the jump master he's still conscious. these kind of accidents happen more than people think,either 1)the jump master use a winch to pull the soldier inside or 2)cut the soldier's line so the soldier can deploy his reserve. the jumpmaster is at fault,he didn't cut the soldier's line quick enough.unfortunately for the soldier,his reserve chute did not work. |

QUOTE(hackwire @ Nov 7 2013, 06:19 PM) Lightning thinking is lacking here. All the troopers insides and pilot have no clue in emergency SOP. U need to face DEATH with Courage . The troopers panic just like any ordinary joe. He could have climb up steadily or must not hesitate too long.. Wonder how many were left inside the plane after that. Maybe only the instructor left? By the way can anyone explain why the 1st jump is at a higher altitude? |

Even the saftey chute wont be able to help when g force is overwhelming. The paratrooper spin like hell on the way down.the second cut in the video shows static line jumps,which are done under 1000 feet.A cord that deploys the parachute is attached to the plane's fuselage.when the guy jumps,the cord becomes stiff and pulls on his pack deploying the chute the pilot didn't descend to land the plane,static line memang low altitude |

Meh.military Parachuting hasn't change much since the 50s
Even during landing, it's not like the movies, it's very violent and the risk of injury is very high |

QUOTE(supermoto @ Nov 8 2013, 12:50 PM) then wouldnt it risk giving the enemy heard the aircraft approaching the LZ with the low level flight? Yes but the enemy would be too confused and disorganised to mount a proper defence. Static line jumps are done en masse and have multiple LZs. Even prepared enemies can be overwhelmed.There's a reason why paratroopers are regarded as elite |
