paratrooper


Nov 2, 2019, 8:33 PM

Has anybody heard what happened to the paratrooper whose chute collapsed on him? He went out of view and was headed down quickly. Hopefully he was able to deploy his reserve chute. Anybody else see this?

Nope, only 2 of the 3 landed on the field. The other one in the black parachute never came close to the stadium.

In light of the situation, I hope you are correct sir. I know I am having a cold one.

The word is one of the 2 that landed in DV had his first chute fail and he removed it and landed with the backup chute. Probably why he landed so hard. For us in the north stands, it was scary seeing the chute fall over the near library. We all thought it was a 3rd person but luckily not.

Thanks for the explanation, it sure looked like 3 of them to begin with though. One red, one blue and one black chute. If it wasnt a paratrooper then what was it?

He literally just said it was the chute that was cut smh***

Heard he landed safely in the reflection pond....the 3 feet of water helps with 65,000 ft. falls.

I was in the lower deck, south stands, people were really worried he did not make it.

The two paratroopers that did make it onto the field had rough landings, especially the first guy. Those guys are tough!

If paratroopers jump out of planes, do paramedics jump out of ambulances? Do paralegals jump out of courtrooms?

Do the paranormal jump out of their skin?

Do paramours jump out of bed? Do paramilitaries go AWOL? Do paraprofessionals become amateurs? Do parasites leave the premises? Do parastates secede?
