Airborne Jump with British Paras (Bad Landing) CH-47 Chinook Jump
A joint Hollywood jump with the 173rd Airborne Brigade and British Paratroopers/Jump-masters.
This was a "Family Day" jump where children and spouses could go watch their family members hop out of a perfectly good helicopter.

    Seen a video a day or 2 ago of someone trying to land with their legs straight, and the SCREAMS from him breaking his leg terrified me! I thought he had paralyzed himself at first until another paratrooper ran to him and he told him he broke his leg, I was so glad it was just a broken leg and not him getting paralyzed. The video title was "Career ending airborne accident" if anyone is curious on seeing the actual video (IDK why you would be!). Now when I see these videos I have some SERIOUS pucker factor going on with the repeated "Please don't break your legs!" said over and over the whole way down. Glad to see yours DIDN'T end that way. Congratulations on the final jump, sir!! And I wish everyone, civilian and military doing any parachuting, a safe and fun journey back down to the surface!

  • @lyingcat9022

    There were occasional opportunities to go to Airborne school but I never really pursued them with maximum effort. Kinda regret that now. Wish I had the experience before getting out. I was already a Skydiver with close to 400 jumps and 70 BASE jumps and I didn’t like the idea of needing to PLF on every jump. The ram air parachutes kinda spoils you in terms of being able to run out your landing on your feet.
