Exercise Flintlock Follies - How NOT to exit the ramp (video)
[The Aviationist] Jumpers Execute Dangerous Exits, Ramp Strikes and Falls in One Jump Exercise.Military static line parachuting is safe when practiced correctly, but minor mistakes can quickly turn a jump into a disaster. Take a look at these. This video appeared on social media early this week from the Flintlock 2019 military exercise in the Sahel region of Africa. Whoever the unit is in the video- and no one is giving them credit (or blame...), they demonstrate about every aircraft exit mistake a static line parachutist can make short of actually forgetting to hook up their static line. The video has disappeared from social media, but we managed to make a video of the video before it disappeared. Posted by: Besoeker 2019-03-10 |
