#3 is still being dragged around to this day.
Sgt Joe Smith xD
welp
Sgt Joe Smith -_- look at this vid m.ua-cam.com/video/oHg5SJYRHA0/v-deo.html
🤣🤣🤣
He is stuck in a mini tornado, that has to be fun
Some say he´s Still out there, shouting "are you kidding me!".
“And here’s a few more clips that didn’t quite make the list”
Basically saying “here’s some more clips so we can get the 10 minute video monetisation.
Better than the assholes who slow the video down to 0.8x speed!
@@ryanl3184 I mean…I can’t disagree
3:21 legend has it that the parachute is still pulling him to this day
The last one actually did land in the water. 😂
That guy lost me. He made a calculated risk, rolled the dice, wind changed and he ended in the best case scenario he could have been landing. Bet he's one of those guys that even his mother shakes her head and calls an ass hole
#3: "Instead of helping, I just gonna film you getting tossed and dragged around."
why he did not cut the parachute?
this guy was extremely unlucky to land in strong circular winds .. he should have cut the lines .. or at least try to draw one side ..its survival ..get the shape out of your shute ... i have done it miself .. and i survived with one broken vertibra .. (strong wind landing )
I saw the same thing happen on a jump in the military. Lmfao! Wind pulled him back up, bird flew into the chute from underneath, chute collapsed, down he went again. It was beyond hilarious. He was fine.
That jellyfish would not lay down
That one really scared me. It have easily taken up 100 plus feet and send him to the grou d under a stalled chute
Unbelievable that nobody came to help that poor guy #3 being dragged around for so long !!!
YIKES !!!!!!! SMH
young nurse thought the same thing!
He was a Paraglider, and those old tech jellyfish round reserves were very unstable with no ability to kill the flare upon landing, and instead of running over and giving him an anchor, just keep filming!
Sad thing is!,, this was much older then the camera phone days where everyone is more interested in filming then helping!
Poor bloke got caught up in a dust devil (dry thermal) which is why it kept creating lift for him poor bugger
young nurse new designs, even round ones have the ability to direct them with either toggles or forward directional design
According to the USPA manual, the proper technique for stopping the canopy from dragging you is to pull one of the brakes all the way to collapse the canopy. I never saw the guy trying that
@@OlivierLopezCh Yea, he was having too much fun for that!!!!
@@michaelbienicewicz2993 Indeed, I think the guy was actually enjoying it
The ones that didn't make your Top 5 had me in stitches !!
2:22 HELP THE MAN, DON'T JUST SIT THERE.
Yes!
Yes
The camera is a long way away. Not sure they could get to them quickly.
Parachutes have cutaway connectors and this person needed to utilise them. Not sure why they didn't. They may have been disoriented or even knocked out. Who knows. Dangerous game
People did get their, but everybody was at least 300 meters away and probably didnt expect it too keep going. although once you recognize the little tornado, it becomes more obvious this guy is in trouble that isnt gonna end any time soon.
Legend has it that one parachutist is still blowing around the desert to this very day
#3 Landed more times in that one jump than I did my entire career.
That's fukin hilarious dude! Am I a bad person for laughing at that? And he only had to make one jump. Damn, I just pissed myself!!
Although I do find some humour in your joke, the poor bastard had double bad luck! He was a paraglider, not a skydiver, and he was using an old school technology jellyfish reserve, which unlike the technology we have these days are not steerable. He did not die as everybody with an opinion and no knowledge of the sport are making!
We use this video often in class in theory when training new pilots to show them just how violent and dangerous a dust devil can be!
Talk about double bad luck!,, not only did he have to cut away his wing and deploy his reserve, but landed right in the heart of a dust devil!
Poor bastardb
Actual "Drag" chute
@@michaelbienicewicz2993 same dude
@@michaelbienicewicz2993 Me too. That guy tea bagged the ground over and and over.
Inevitable landing in trees
"Are you kidding me?"
Is that a standard army procedure to call out "You've gotta be fucking kidding me?!" before crashing into trees?
Sir :Standard Procedure is Xross ur leg's & TUCK them up Tight & Kiss ur Future Family GOOD-BYE !!! lol Planker.C9/T10 & Squares.
That jellyfish put up a hell of a fight!!!
That explains the skeleton being dragged across my lawn this morning.
Nice one Top Fives.
The one in the dust devil needed to cut away.
And that last one, I reckon they got the best of a bad deal.
Missed the trees, kept the canoy dry, landed in the shallows and there was even a log there to help them climb out.
Yeah he is a sook
The guy in the army with the best sitting landing j have ever seen
5:33
I have done my share of bad landings back when I was a Paratrooper in the US Army. The bad part is when majority of the time when we jumped at 800 feet AGL with combat equipment at night. This is tricky because you have to look at the horizon not at the ground when you are landing to determine your own altitude and watching out for other jumpers at the same time. When you come down you have to keep your feet and knees together, relax and fall like a wet noodle to absorb the shock through your body in order not to get seriously injured. The problem with parachuting is the winds above the ground is way different when you are up in the air. So you have to manipulate the risers or toggles to face the wind to stop or steer. Military parachutes are more difficult to steer especially the steerable MC-1s. You have to jump a lot of those to get the right feel. T-10s are basic riser controlled parachutes which involves climbing up the risers to control your steering. That is why at the US Army Airborne School when I went through every student was required to do at least 7 pull ups before training and hundreds of push ups everyday during training. The daily physical training like running 4 miles during Monday to Thursday and a 5 miler on Friday was to make sure students will quit at a good 7 and a half mile or faster if you were out front where I was. Every class was reduced 20% during the first 2 weeks and another 20% by Jump Week through injuries or not wanting to jump. Military parachuting want only the best who can pass the US Army Airborne School. Many service members from other branches of the military from cadets to elite special operations units go through the course to complete their mandatory military education. I did my time by going through Airborne and being a paratrooper with my Airborne Infantry unit. This experience in my life I will never forget. Every time you jump out of a good airplane, your chances of dying or injured are 50%. This is from personal experience.
reddevilparatrooper you wrote an entire novel as a comment. Lol stand up hook up shuffle...
Roger Jump Master!!!! LOL!
Great hearing your personal experience. And, thank you for your service.
No such thing as a perfectly good airplane... Jokes aside, thank you for your service and for sharing your experience.
I don’t appreciate your service after what you did to m6 country. Shame is on you.
Damn, what are the chances of catching a dust devil on your parachute!
"He has a really bad back"
Then wtf is he doing parasailing?
*paragliding
Rob everybody who is claiming he is a skydiver is wrong, you can tell by his harness that he is a paraglider who is under his reserve canopy.
Talk about double bad luck, not only did he have to cut away his wing, and deploy his reserve, but then he landed directly into the heart of a dust devil, one of the worst places to be as a paraglider!
The fact is, there is absolutely nothing that guy could have done to prevent this or rectify the situation! Those old school jellyfish reserves don’t have toggles or breaks like new are technology gives us.
I keep my old Apco 110 in my front mount reserve container, and I use a Rollo as my main reserve, which I admit to using several times for base jumping…
The poor bastard did survive, suffered very severe injuries, as we use this video in class to teach new students just how dangerous dust devils and actually be!
Parachute be like... come on buddy, i wanna go again!
LoL
6:15 Harry Potter laying awake at night in the gryffindor dorms with his wand illuminating a passport photo of Hermione, a single tear rolls down his cheek.
Legend has it that the guy with the white parachute is still being dragged around.
On a serious note, parachutists out there, couldn't he just have unhooked one side to make that canopy collapse?
Yea, the one thing you can do as long as you don't do it when being pulled into the air which could have been fatal. Hell looking at the poor guy...I still wonder if he lived.capewellaerialsystems.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/CA-Parachute-Release-PSV.pdf
Release a riser or cut away, shit man!
The guy died from head injury
Those old capewells SUCKED. I fought with those POS too many times. The 3-ring release is so much nicer.
@@phillipzx3754 The 3 ring and the curved pin a mankinds best inventions
At about 1:40 I'm just yelling at my monitor CUTAWAY!!! CUTAWAY!!!!
the 'luck' of landing in a dust devil... damn
The guy died at the sky
Shoot Killer no he didn’t! He was actually a Paraglide pics can not a skydiver! He was using an old school technology jellyfish reserve, which means not only did he have to cut away his wing and apply his reserve, upon landing he also landed inside a dust devil poor bastard! Talk about double the bad luck, he simply could not cut away as even if he had access to his hawk knife, he may have dropped it that we didn’t see, or this year G forces that he was being thrown around at made him like a rag doll as you saw for yourself!
I don’t make absurd comments about something you don’t know about, because I remember this incident clear as day, and often I use this video when I’m doing the theory in class training for new paragliding pilot’s doing their training course to get their PG2 licence
Remington Bradley you seem to be a skydiver by the looks of your profile pic? You should have been able to tell by his harness that he wasn’t a skydiver but a paraglider.
Unfortunately those old jellyfish reserves have no control whatsoever! It wasn’t an old T-10 military reserve which most people are stating, but older technology paragliding reserve…
@@patrickswayze2596 that's what I thought... but did he survive?
Legend has it that the guy at 3:00 is still eat dirt and he was last seen somewhere out in the Sahara desert
Man these were funny 😅
number 2 is a paraglider HUGE DIFFERENCE
Jack Schaller so is number 3! He is on his reserve and caught up in a dust devil poor bastard
That guy being dragged along the ground reminds of that stupid dollar bill you drop and ever time you bend down to pick it up the wind blows it a little further away!!!..
I do not chase anything less than a five
lllol
Oh my God I'm so sorry for laughing so much at the guy with the white parachute
@2.00 or so, looks like a dust devil has him. My own experience, amusing perhaps, was in New Mexico - I saw a dust devil moving across the desert floor from my truck, and I was ahead of it. I got out, I wanted to know if I could stand up to it's strength. The answer was yes. And for that I received a number of puncture wounds from cactus plants being spun around me. Somehow I feel like I learned more than I intended to learn.
What is a dust devil? is it like a small tornado?
Syd Kibweterer A dust devil is in fact a small tornado as you mentioned. And Kevin, he was a paraglider, not a skydiver. You can tell this by his harness, and talk about double bad luck, not only did he have to cut away his wing and apply his reserve, he landed directly in the heart of a dust devil, the worst place to be for any pilot!
We use this video in the classroom to teach new students just how dangerous the dust devil can actually be! But yes, he did survive, but suffered many severe and serious injuries…
Very very good music
Esta muy bien que muestren estos vídeos para que nadie se haga la idea de que este deporte es todo una maravilla y que esta excepto de grandes riesgo de potencial peligrosidad para la vida.
That dude at 5:50 was so happy and surprised that he didn't get hurt. I can totally relate, I been there.
Wow! Who knew parachuting could be so dangerous?
Uh everyone
#3 should've been #1
For that 3rd guy.. parachute said IAM about to destroy his whole career
3:03 It's now February 4, 2021, and they're still chasing that damn parachute.
Just an FYI, number 4 and 7:45 are both paragliders and not parachutes. Similar but fundamentally different. Oh and smart paraglider pilots will have a parachute with them in case of emergency.
uhhh 7:45 is far from a glider, that is a paramotor..... cause he is a motor on it....
@@MoonLiteNite You kinda missed the point there. Yes it is a motor on a paraglider wing, but the point is that it isn't a parachute that he's flying on.
Top failed parachute landings? Clearly, they've never seen me play PUBG.
Oh, to be young again! But those landings are the ones that will make you old in a hurry!
This is so relaxing and pure enjoyment
I can relate to a couple of these landings. I made a hard tree landing in Korea and landed on someone’s front lawn in San Antonio, Tx.
👀 😯 #3 it just wouldn’t stop!! My god
1:28 guy wished he had brought his Swiss Army knife.
Dan McLaughlin if anything, you would use a hook knife, and seeing as the video was so violent, we couldn’t actually see whether he attempted to all not? But you never use an open blade when paragliding, or even skydiving, as if you were in a EP, a knife could go in any direction And become completely fatal if they were to cut themselves!
He survived unlike many uneducated over opinionated people are claiming.
We use this video in the classroom to teach new students the dangers of what dust devils are capable of doing
Thou forgot to post that one featured in "Faces of Death 4" which the guy landed in a lake crowded by alligators.
THAT ONE was an epic fail!
When ask after his hard fall if the woman chanting "Ron Ron Ron" was distracting, Ron said.." Well, I'm not going to stand for that ever again."
#3: clear case of haunted parachute.
Yes i noticed, it was possessed
2:35 Le parachute: Let's go for another round baby
#1 said: "Open field? Nah, that's too easy, let me find the one spot under me with a bunch of thorny bushes."
Yeah, I'm a skydiving instructor and without knowing all the details, I was thinking the very same thing. On a separate note, I don't think any of these qualify as the "Top 5 Failed Parachute Landings", because everyone lived.
He doesn't get to steer that chute it's a round....
I'm not a parachutist, but I'm a glider pilot with a few off-field landings under my belt. #1 looked marginal to make the big field, but probably just in, especially if he steered for a gap between trees. I can't see any wires, but maybe that's just the video. He made things a lot worse!
L L is the only person on here who is actually making a educated comment!
He was a paraglider, not a skydiver!
Talk about double bad luck, not only did he have to cutaway his wing for some reason and deploy his reserve, allowed to swear inside a dust devil which is the worst place Apollo could ever end up!
Those old school round jellyfish style reserves have no breaks or toggles, so you cannot steal them or guide them even in the slightest…
He did in fact survive this incident, and we use this video in the classroom to teach new students the dangers of dust devils and what they are capable of doing!
Charles Wynn completely agree mate. I am a CFI paragliding instructor, and we use this video in the classroom often to show students just how dangerous dust devils truly are!
This isn’t a T-10 canopy luck used in the military, it is an old school jellyfish reserve which is entirely designed to simply slow your sink rate, but unfortunately you have no control over where it goes…
So many an educated keyboard heroes claiming that he died from that dust devil, absolutely absurd! Yes, it was one of the most violent and disturbing dust devils I have ever seen a pilot caught inside of, but there was simply nothing he could do except write it out.
4:35 is like Hmm, okay, I'm facing into the wind and there are a few open areas right below me. I know what to do! I'll just turn and go crosswind into those trees back there.
fleafrier1 yeah he had no place being in the big blue
Is that the same guy at 5:17 and 8:52? LOL. It seems like, "Are you eff-in kidding me?? I land in the eff-in trees every time I jump out of a plane! Dammit!"
in number 3 are they gonna record him all day? im glad i saw s.o helping him at the end.
0:38 GOAL!
legend has it no3 is still going..........
Number 3: Look Ma, 2 shattered thigh bones and a shattered hip. Yea!!!
The dust devil was clearly the worst. Ouch!!
That's going to leave a mark.
1.) Take/ Learn Canopy Control 101
2.) Know the LZ, Know the wind direction
3.) Have an "out"
4.) If you have to-Buy a Wind Indicator and stick it in the ground
5.) If you don't like the "spot"-stay the fuck in the aircraft!
6.) A round will get you down, A square will get you there (if you don't adhere to the first 5)
*_THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DON'T THANK THE BUS DRIVER!_*
Apple juice happens.
3:48 I planned on doing that, it's my new dismount.
For any new paragliding Or skydiving Pilots here, here are some lesson we can all take from this video...
#5 wasn’t paying attention to his/her altitude awareness, came in hot when they should have circled another time whilst still owning height. As he attempted to land it was already too late to make any other choice but to ride it out! Thankfully he DID flare enough to slow his speed rapidly before hitting the stadium wall.
#4 Paraglider not skydiver. Poor pre-flight check list! Before he mounted into his harness, he had twisted it through itself and so his lines were all inside out and basically facing backwards, so when he attempted to flare he couldn’t due to the fact his A’s were now his C’s/D’s and didn’t respond correctly!
Or/ He attempted to tumble inside his harness as a stunt and we weren’t shown that if he was showing off!
#3 Poor Paraglider unfortunately using old technology, and with those old reserves which operate much like the old paracommander military chutes where they had no directional ability! They have a high sink rate and unfortunately go where ever the wind takes you, and in his case, sadly the damage done to him whilst ON the ground was much worse then his actual landing. Then unfortunately, upon landing got caught up in a dust devil and tossed and turned him around as he had no ability to kill the reserve as the wind and heat kept inflating his reserve sending him into a position where he had no control over what was going on, just had to ride it out...
Sadly all those people watching and filming did nothing to go attempt to help anchor him and hold him down to give him time to deflate the reserve....
#2 came in hot and didn’t flare in time so his angle of attack was still guiding him at a very fast rapid descent, when all he had to do was pull those toggles (brakes) down as low as he could and he would have landed just fine on two feet, which I hope weren’t broken upon landing! Hope he was ok?
#1 WOW! What can I even say about that?
He had so many places to land, so many places, and for some unknown reason? Maybe he panicked, was a new pilot, I don’t know, but instead of aiming towards one of MANY landing spots, he decided to rapidly steer left into absolute chaos! Trees everywhere! Houses! Powerlines! All the hazards you want to avoid, but whilst we don’t know why he did it, what we can take from this is, as you’re descending, pick your landing zone! Choose a spot where you want to land, both skydivers and Paraglider alike, keep your eyes on the target, and start preparing for your landing position in your harness. Just like a motorcycle, where ever you look you will go, and unfortunately he chose to look left and steered in that direction away from all the other potential safe landing spots he had available!
As a skydiver with over 4500 jumps under my belt, close to 900 BASE jumps now, and countless hours paragliding, speed flying, mild proximity flying and a little bit of hang gliding experience, all these mistakes were easy to spot for me, however, it’s easy to sit here and say what we could have done better in those situations, but any of these mistakes can happen to the best of pilots! So never take any unnecessary risks! Always pay attention to other pilots in the sky, both skydiving and paragliding as it’s YOUR responsibility to always make sure you’re aware of your surroundings!
Never attempt to learn to fly from UA-cam, there is so much information that you simply cannot learn and understand without having first being trained under proper guidance from a certified school where these teachers are trained professionals who hopefully one day you will be too!
Blue Skies and safe flying all ☺️
Stay safe up there and take care of one another, because remember, it always takes TWO pilots to have a collision!...
how can you do 4500 jumps in one life time
silly sour did you finish school? Do you know basic math? If not then go back to the kiddies table and learn basic mathematics!
silly sour so you’ve worked it out yet sport or still trying to do the math?
@@patrickswayze2596 I just said that in sarcasm
silly sour unfortunately sarcasm doesn’t translate well in text form!
It’s all in the tone of the voice and context it’s in. This is why my wife has the shits with me all the time haha
That guy at 7:26 did some great Cat-trobatics to miss that power line. Watch it at half speed. He was all "hell no! I would rather eat side-walk than become a crispy critter in the power-lines.
The legends say the no. 3 is still trying to untangle his self from the parachute.
When guards dont give entry without tickets 😂😂
6:07 Ron! Ron! ROOON!! Ron blew out his knee caps.
2:00 Like a Giant jelly fish trolling that guy
3.00 believe me that parsuit wants to take him somewhere
Kool aid man bust through the wall: OH YEAHHHHHHHHHHHH
Those poor SEAL jumpers have probably still not heard the last of it from their buddies.

3rd is the most dangerous 😟😱
One on grandstand roof can now base jump and have a 2 for 1 deal
poor guy who is bieng dragged by his own parachute
He get killed at first impact, you are looking at dead body tossed by the dust devil.
Why didn't he cut the lines?!
cmon that must be fun!
Gnosis7 with what? A knife?
Ever heard of a hooknife or how to make your canopy collapse? This person hasn't.
The last words for a lot of parachuters must be, "Are you fucking kidding me?!"
"Are you fucking kidding me? The weather didn't precisely cooperate with my choice to jump out of an airplane? Why does the universe hate me, personally?"
These vids are freaking hilarious! LMFAO!
7:27 That poor guy is dead. He pulled up to avoid hitting those power lines but fell from about 15 to 20 feet in the air.. Very sad :-(
It looks like he hit the streetlamp on top of the pole.
I laughed ITS TOO FUNNY!
6:45 lmaoo "Rawn,,, RAWWWWNN 1010, 9,8,7,6,5,4 OOOOOOHHHHHHH RAWN"
Sounded like she was getting boned by Rawn, AHHHHHHHH

#3 just so happens to land in a dust devil 🤣🤣🤣 fuckin hilarious 😂😂
Wait, that last 'bonus clip' sounds exactly like the guy who landed standing up in the forest earlier. Is that like a schtick this guy does?
First clip was canadian army, second was us army.
I admit, after thinking several times that the white parachute would stop dragging him around, only to see it pick him up again, I ended up having a bit of a chuckle 😬😂😂
the title looks like a ufo capturing a human lol
Ouch!
No parachutes were hurt in the making of this vid..😁
They all helped but the third one was left alone
No 3 with actual "Drag"chute
Great music! Who are the artists?
Well at least 8:15 landed by the fire truck... they'll have em down in no time! Lol
Title reads *top 5* we got a lot more than 5 best click bait ever.
"I have a really bad back. I think I'll take up an extreme sport!" Let's get him a wingsuit and put him out if his misery!
"You f***ing kidding me!" (music intensifies)
Must be a military thing to say "Are you fucking kidding me" before barely missing the trees. Or was that the same guy?😂😂
9;30....ah shit so I gotta land in the water and be safe yet ruin my paraglide or go for the trees, hit a tree/bush, save the paraglide but get banged up by the trees....hmmm I can’t decide....**hits a tree at the edge of the lake and falls in the water with his paraglide ...”are u fucking kiddding me????!!!” Lmao!!
No 3 best
i saw this playing in the lounge at a S and M club in Manhattan
5:04 GREEN LIGHT!.... WAIT NO!
40 years ago I did 4 Static Lines jumps from the bottom wing of a Biplane. Although I was in the British Army at the time I volunteered to do the course. Was supposed to be 4 Static Line then 11 Free Fall. On the last jump (We used half circle with 10 MPH forward thrust) I got a Line Over. One of the Lines went over the top of the Parachute in the middle, I had to cut away my Main Chute and deploy my Reserve Chute? It is smaller than the Main Chute and is to save life. It did mine but I pulled every ligament in my right leg. Took time to heal, No more Parachuting but walking normally some 8 months later. That is what I call a bad landing not just being 3/4 mile off target (That being the jump masters fault?
The other ones made the list they just happen to be at the end of it
Diving over thousand acres of forest and is surprised to land in trees.."are you fuckin kidding me?"
