Heart-stopping video shows US Army paratrooper freefalling through air for 15 seconds after parachute failed during jump over Italy, with reserve inflating just seconds before he landed
  • The incident, which took place from an Air Force C-130 transport plane flying over Italy, was luckily not deadly

  • The unidentified soldier's reserve inflated seconds before he hit the ground

  • The clip was taken in what's known as the Juliet Drop Zone in Italy, which is used by the Army's 173rd Airborne Brigade

  • The video originated on TikTok, lasting 22 seconds as the paratrooper's chute doesn't open and he becomes desperate as he rockets toward the ground

He did the 'one thousand to five thousand' count.... THREE TIMES before deploying his reserve ?
