Di0 2 #3 April 1, 2014 Priceless. However, the original wiki-how has a very intersting tips & warnings section that wasn't reported: http://www.wikihow.com/Cope-With-a-Double-Parachute-Failure QuoteTips * Your reserve chute should have been packed by a certified rigger and is moderately less likely to fail; therefore, it may be helpful to focus your efforts on opening your reserve parachute. * Some humans who have, for various reasons, become aware of their impending death, develop psychological coping strategies to deal with this; for instance, the Kubler-Ross phases of grief. Since your own death approaches far more quickly, this is unlikely to be of any use to you. * Water landings: if you have successfully attached to a companion whose chute opens, keep in mind that both your arms may be broken or dislocated, and you may be unable to swim or tread water before your chute fills and drags you under. * If, after total chute failure, you land on something soft, it is possible that instead of being killed outright, you may be permanently paralysed due to spinal injury. If you have a strong aversion to this outcome, aiming head-downward before impact in the manner of an Olympic diver may ensure the destruction of your cranium and your immediate demise.I'm standing on the edge With a vision in my head My body screams release me My dreams they must be fed...
