He didn't "lose" anything. He had line twists he decided he could not remedy so he carried out the drills every skydiver is taught, cut away the main, and deployed his reserve and landed safely.
the line twists didn't look very bad... not spinning too much... and pulled high enough to kick out of them... i would have tried to save it. am i wrong?
Do you swim, ride a motorbike, run long distance, drive...? There are plenty of things in this world as dangerous as skydiving. None quite as fun though.
He didn't lose his parachute, he opened his main and had some line twists so he cut his main parachute away (you can see him pull the red handle on the right which cuts away his main chute, then there is a silver handle he pulled on his left that you can't see in the video that deployed his white reserve chute. For those of you who don't skydive, there are 2 parachutes: you have your main chute, and then a reserve just in case things get weird :) Honestly, he panicked (like everyone does), and maybe could have cleared the twists by pulling the risers apart and kicking his legs a bit harder, but when your parachute spins like that you're losing altitude fast; he got down safe and that means he did the right thing! I love skydiving, it is my absolute favorite past time, and his line twist deployment is actually fairly common, especially if you pull your reserve while not very stable in the air.
Jessica Breeding You are on the right track ,but l am sure it's water off a ducks back from the comments being made . 1962-1977 l was in 16 Para Bgde. and tried skydiving just to see what it was like , in '64 .Military jumps were always an "Uplifting experience" and my sense of humour prevailed ! Whilst serving a 1 year tour in Bahrein in '66 ,the chance to do a 10 day free-fall course arose . No pun intended ! So off we went to Aden , which was a Civil War Zone ! Our instructor was a very experienced Worldwide skydiver and all was going well ,until l pulled my first reserve on my 13th jump .A grain of sand had jammed the ripcord ( tolerence free housing) , and so began a spate of white 'chutes being deployed. With 2 reserves to my credit l gained unwanted notoriety , but it did not end there. Back in England by 1967 another chance to redeem myself had me doing a continuation course , at APA Centre ,Netheravon . Captive ripcords were being used ,causing me to become unstable as l struggled to get a clean pull .Along came my 3rd reserve , and being such a expert a good landing ensued 😁. After 49 jumps l quit but had my first ever military reserve pull during a Low Level night jump from a Andover supply aircraft over Salisbury Plain . 16 twists and a reserve that did not open ,a weapons container strapped to my leg , the PX chute unwound seconds before landing . Walking away from that and seeing all my grimfaced comrades was so enjoyable . Wishing you safe and happy landings ,Jessica .
Brian Lane- Who are you to say that? He was doing a demo jump and demo jumps like that usually go from 5000 ft. He delayed before opening his main, so there was already a good 2000ft loss...then time for canopy opening and trying to kick out of twists... another 1500 ft loss... he probably hit his hard deck and chopped. No one can sit back and say he did the wrong thing. He did what was right for him in that situation and lived to tell the tale, so step off your high horse. No one should be critical of another skydiver chopping because it is their decision and they are using their emergency procedures for what they feel is an emergency.
That's because you have to be mentally prepared to cut away "if" a malfunction occurs. He knew what he had to do, and I'm betting he has a few hundred jumps under his belt and all the training beforehand pays off.
@@thecrap-crap2414 its because the title was definitely writen by someone not in the skydiving scene. The correct term is: cutting away the main chute.
+Swagger Do He handled it correctly. With a canopy that is spinning that hard, there's no way you're going to recover in time to land your main. (I'm a skydiver, and I know the jumper in this video.)
Chuck Norris would've pulled the thread out of his clothing and make a new parachute on the spot. Then he would put it in his pack and just land on his feet.
After the freefall he was flat and stable when he deployed his canopy. When he looked up he had about three line twists. This will prevent the steering lines from working and may cause it to not fly straight. Normally you can just kick around to clear the line twists and continue on but in this case while he was kicking the canopy went into a spin. The rate of decent greatly increases, the centrifugal force makes you appear to weigh a lot more making the kick out more difficult. At this point he made the decision to cut away his main canopy and deploy his reserve canopy. One handle cuts away and another deploys the reserve. At 1:34 you can see the red cut away handle with yellow cables and the silver reserve deployment handle. Stash the handles and continue to the landing site. Normally the skydiver might follow the $1000+ canopy to the ground if at his normal drop zone where he would know where are all the obstacles like power lines are located but he is flying a demo jump in an area filled with unknown hazards so the original target is the best option. It is unknown if the original canopy was returned to him. Most of the time when people see the falling detached canopy they swear they see a person flailing around in it. Fortunately, this usually leads to better recovery.
He didn't lost his chute. It's called a cutaway. There are several ways the main chute may deploy incorrectly. Divers trained for this. If the main chute doesn't respond to user inputs to correct the issue (can can see the diver trying to untie the chute for 5 seconds), you detach from the main chute, get stable, and deploy the secondary chute. This is a normal part of skydiving. It happens to everyone eventually.
I was so terrified of heights but then I went skydiving, it's really not that bad. I actually really enjoyed it and I'm planning to go again. If anyone is thinking about going I'd say to just do it, you feel sooo accomplished after.
This skydiver is a reel pro. He had a massive line twist and hade to deploy his reserve. Only a pro skydiver could land a reserve parachute into a soccer field. I liked it. I am still a student skydiver and loving it. I have videos of my jumps.
I came to watch a parachute detach itself. Then ad came up: Why flies rub their legs to each other. I'm probably the first person who didn't skip youtube ad.
+Glenn Karmun I have never gone skydiving before and smoke can mean a lot of different things. I was trying to make a joke and rude, sarcastic remarks are uncalled for. There is no need in putting others down the way that guy did.
I'm working on getting my Skydiving license right now (AFP level 5). As soon as you pull your first parachute, you ask yourself "Is it there? Is it square? Is it steerable?" His first parachute had a line twist. I get those all the time, you just have to kick out of it (as though you're in a swing set) and the lines automatically untwist. If you can't untwist within 2 seconds you should immediately cut away that parachute and pull your reserve (which he did). Skydiving is dangerous, but it's also a lot of fun!
Guys. The first parachute is a performance parachute for turning and having fun. It will sometimes tangle up from very specific wind patterns through the equipment or wear from use. The reserve is a full parachute that doesn’t do anything exciting and will open 100% of the time unless the equipment is damaged. When packed by the special professionals, the equipment is brand new and/or completely undamaged. When the main chute has a problem, which happens to most all experienced jumpers at least once in their career before they stop, you cut it away and use the boring one lol
Most parachutes includes a device that register the altitude and speed that you are falling, if the speed to high and the altitude too low, then a 3rd parachute will be deployed automatic.
I went tandem with this guy, daniel, several times at airtight. They are very focused on safety and proper training. This clearly reflects that. Now he's living it to the fullest jumping and diving in Hawaii. So jealous Daniel.....
I did a bit of skydiving during the time i was a drop pilot years ago Golden rule our instructor gave us was learn to pack your own chute and always check the pack Always
Man you profile photo is weird. I thought it was a piece of hair and i spend 5 mins trying to get it off my phone it was the longest 5 minutes in my life
Funny thing is, it looks like right when you went to grab the cutaway handle, the line twists started to correct itself. not gonna blame you for getting outta there though! that earth is coming up quick haha
1) The Earth is round 2) If the curvature you saw in the video was the same curvature of the Earth, the entire planet would be roughly the size of Texas. What you saw was the "fish-eye" effect from camera lenses. If you saw that with your bare eyes, it would appear completely flat. The Earth's curvature is way too gradual to see with your eyes alone at that low of an altitude.
Well, people say "Everything is good that was finished nicely". Malfunction is part of skydiving. A mal on a demo jump brings extra worries to locate the chopped canopy and a freebag. Keep going baddy! Blue Sky! :)
This looks to me like a planned "demo" (or demonstration) jump. These are planned, for the entertainment of spectators. The jump itself, over a crowded urban area is approved by Air Traffic Control and the jumpers are qualified to make these demanding jumps. There would have been a ground crew as well and they would have dispatched someone to find and recover the lost main canopy. I hope they found it and in good condition, because the canopy alone would have cost over $2000.
He went to his reserve. Jumped 23 years and had to go to my reserve 5 times. He had to make a choice as it's harder to get out of line twists with a ram-air canopy than a round. We weren't on the jump and this fella had to make a decision based upon altitude and where he'd land.
Richard Baker I am a novice skydiver, my question is..under you point of view, you dont think that line twist was about to be fixed? I have seen the video many times and I think so..thanks in advance
Same thing happened to me on my one and only parachute jump. We were told to get the tangles out using scissor kicks. I didn’t panic, though I did think about jettisoning the main chute and using the reserve, but I decided I had time to work out the tangles. It worked a treat, no problem at all. I ended up on the cross on the ground we were supposed to land on so even had time to guide it too. It was a two thousand foot jump with a static line. The tangle was caused by me not jumping from the plane properly,( I spun round before and during the parachute opening). Happy days😳.
Don't see what everyone is talking about, it went great and he acted perfectly. Showing that even if shit happens you can still make a great entrance at a football-arena!
+Umbreon Guy Lol I'm sure your going or trolling, but people forget the person has a wife, a child, a mom, a dad, a cousin, family and friends that love the person just like us. I know I'm thinking into to this way to much, its the interwebs, but life is precious people...
He didn't lose it. He released his main, and opened his reserve. Line twists happen, and these guys teach you the right procedures for such emergencies. How do i know?....I am a student of theirs, and consider them the best there is. I have had the same type of issue, and managed to get the twist fixed, so I didn't have to cut away, and open my reserve.
This is line twist then a cutaway,then reserve deployed,he did not lose his chute...just FYI ..... I've had the same situation happened to me,the scariest fucken moment of my life. Awesome video...thanks ✌️

Thank you for posting your comment. Made me turn off the video a minute into it. I hate click bait titles.
“LOST” his parachute ?? .. Really ? I’m pretty sure he dumped it due to line twist. He didn’t even “lose” the reserve handle.
Randy Porter I think they mean he lost sight of his main, which would suck ass in an urban area like that
I think if he actually lost the parachute, we wouldn't see this video, on account of everything, including the camera, being smeared across a pavement
Clay B Yeah, good point. Just a bad choice of wording I guess.

me: Is that pochinki?
He pulled the cutaway and reserve, which was exactly what he was supposed to do. Excellent job keeping cool.
Funny thing is, it looks like right when you went to grab the cutaway handle, the line twists started to correct itself. not gonna blame you for getting outta there though! that earth is coming up quick haha
I sure didn't see a flat earth.....
lol that's a fish eye lens
+George Lopez ah that would explain the horizon bending.
+Uncle Lou look at the airplane pole, it's bent.
you guys are all dumb. its the go pro. the way that go pros record give it that round effect.
1) The Earth is round
2) If the curvature you saw in the video was the same curvature of the Earth, the entire planet would be roughly the size of Texas. What you saw was the "fish-eye" effect from camera lenses. If you saw that with your bare eyes, it would appear completely flat. The Earth's curvature is way too gradual to see with your eyes alone at that low of an altitude.
My heart actually was racing like I was there. Glad it turned out okay!
"Loses" his chute? No.
Has a malfunction and deploys his reserve? Yes.
Well, people say "Everything is good that was finished nicely". Malfunction is part of skydiving. A mal on a demo jump brings extra worries to locate the chopped canopy and a freebag. Keep going baddy! Blue Sky! :)
Outstanding ... Never lost his cool. Awesome jump.
That must have been the scariest moment of that guys life
Lol that's routine linetwist cutaway🤣 Not that scary
Not likely. Scariest moment of his life is when he sees his main in the road after having gotten driven over about 20 times.
Imagine just watching a game of football then all of a sudden some guy parachutes into the pitch
“Hey, did I make it on time?”
This looks to me like a planned "demo" (or demonstration) jump. These are planned, for the entertainment of spectators. The jump itself, over a crowded urban area is approved by Air Traffic Control and the jumpers are qualified to make these demanding jumps. There would have been a ground crew as well and they would have dispatched someone to find and recover the lost main canopy. I hope they found it and in good condition, because the canopy alone would have cost over $2000.
It's a "pitch" in soccer. Football is played on a field.
He went to his reserve. Jumped 23 years and had to go to my reserve 5 times. He had to make a choice as it's harder to get out of line twists with a ram-air canopy than a round. We weren't on the jump and this fella had to make a decision based upon altitude and where he'd land.
Richard Baker I am a novice skydiver, my question is..under you point of view, you dont think that line twist was about to be fixed? I have seen the video many times and I think so..thanks in advance
This is why you don't trust Brian Griffin to pack your parachute.
Same thing happened to me on my one and only parachute jump. We were told to get the tangles out using scissor kicks. I didn’t panic, though I did think about jettisoning the main chute and using the reserve, but I decided I had time to work out the tangles. It worked a treat, no problem at all. I ended up on the cross on the ground we were supposed to land on so even had time to guide it too. It was a two thousand foot jump with a static line. The tangle was caused by me not jumping from the plane properly,( I spun round before and during the parachute opening). Happy days😳.
...that was totALLY WICKED!
Whenever I loose my parachute, I always ask myself "Where was the last place I remember seeing it?"
I like how the other guy "flew" away from him like "Welp, see you in hell."
😂😂😂
In freefall, that's called tracking and it's done on every jump to give the jumpers safe separation for opening.
That's standard practice for every jump. And yes we will all be partying in hell
Don't see what everyone is talking about, it went great and he acted perfectly. Showing that even if shit happens you can still make a great entrance at a football-arena!
this guy was my tandem instructor super nice knows what he is doing. Glad you are okay!!!
Thank god the guy had an extra, my Gosh people you guys wanna watch this guy die?
Yeah?
+Umbreon Guy Lol I'm sure your going or trolling, but people forget the person has a wife, a child, a mom, a dad, a cousin, family and friends that love the person just like us. I know I'm thinking into to this way to much, its the interwebs, but life is precious people...
Every jumper has a backup parachute. That is standard...
+Ferenc Kocsis yeah but some can be ripped or something
+Mike you really don't need to be an ass
I went skydiving without a chute, and I was perfectly fine.
do it during a red son id be more impressed
now do that while holding a chunk of kryptonite.
jk
HE'S A GHOST RUUN
I didn’t get the joke at first, and then I checked the replies and realized what your username was.
Cuz has superman
Now he's in the middle of that football field with shitted pants.
Thank God this man is alright! Good job of remaining calm.
He didn't lose it. He released his main, and opened his reserve. Line twists happen, and these guys teach you the right procedures for such emergencies. How do i know?....I am a student of theirs, and consider them the best there is. I have had the same type of issue, and managed to get the twist fixed, so I didn't have to cut away, and open my reserve.
With these upgrades, yo never stood a chance
+Ethan Thompson nah
Stand up if you want to get burned
1 shot 1 kill won't even see it coming
Full metal everything
get back to boot camp
Yeah I’d like a back up for my back up.
I’d like a back up for my back up for my back up
This is why I will never skydive
The white parachute was like an angel.
Diving out of a perfectly good plane
2:19
Proof that earth is round
Arthur Frenken its camerA lens angle
It’s because of the camera lens
Ur kidding right :DDD
I guess you could say this video was taken during the FALL!
major L pal sry
I see what you did there... I'm blind now.
Really Bad L man I'm sorry dude
+1,000 Subscriber challenge With no videos sub to me
+matt rodgers woa there take er' easy
I want to sky dive so badly!!
Same!!!!
Do it! As you can see it's still safe! The guy is perfectly fine! Safe than all of the people driving on our roads while texting!!
+Eastsidedirtykid exactly
Don't skydive badly, it will be your last time.
that's because jumpers get close calls and quit the sport.can't compare to millions driving each day on the road.
This is line twist then a cutaway,then reserve deployed,he did not lose his chute...just FYI ..... I've had the same situation happened to me,the scariest fucken moment of my life. Awesome video...thanks ✌️
Correction: Skydiver ditches main chute, deploys reserve. Very intense. Glad you made it.
this proves the earth isn't flat look at dem curves
the earth is round. however that's the camera lens distorting it. if earth was that round you could fly around it like 50 times per day.
He didn't 'Lose his parachute', the lines got twisted so he cut them and deployed his reserve. Nice click bait though.
*Landing in bootcamp* pubgm fans like here!! 🤣
That's when you realize how stupid it is to rely on fabric to keep you alive at terminal velocity.
I've done it thousands of times. It's really not stupid.
It's fun. Thank you. Love you.
Just like Logan Paul's skydiving accident
CarlWilsonLopinac28 yes
Logan Paul didn't have a skydivING accident. Neither did this guy. They had a malfunction. Way different.
