First up we have the conventional US Army parachute jump.
Next we have a Special Forces Scuba Committee jump.
Who do YOU think is having the most fun?
LOL!
Were you Airborne,
@sneakypete ?
I used to work with this guy who was an avid skydiver. Seems like every other weekhe would come in with some "brush with death" story, usually about another skydiver, but occasionally him. We all used to joke about "Barker's 'brush with death' stories.
The only one that sticks in my mind after all these years is this one. He was doing a jump, but upon exiting the aircraft whacked his head on something and knocked himself unconscious. Fortunately, a few weeks prior he had added some device that automatically pulls the rip cord if you fall below some set altitude. He said the shock of the chute opening woke him up, and he was lucky enough to be over an area where a somewhat normal landing was possible.
