  • Flipping heck lucky boy!!!

  • Having done my freefall course with the B.A 10 years ago now my memory's a bit sketchy, but am I right that the correct drill is to give the signal that your ready to get cut free, then, get yourself in a stable position before peel-punch-pull to give your reserve 'chute a chance. I think he got fed up peel-punch-pulled while still hung up of course there was no wind resistance to break away the main chute as it had not deployed so there was no force untill his reserve deployed to pull him off.

  • too damn close

  • Looks like the reserve was deployed before the static line was cut. Lucky it was cut as the reserve deployed.

  • Wow, adrenalin was under control on that one. In the worst case scenarios always keep a calm mind. You gotta train yourself to stay that way for your own sake but for others as well

  • isn't the reserve supposed to be a solid color??

  • could have lost the entire plane load.

  • 1)chi ha effettuato i controlli pre imbarco?2)dove cavolo era il coltello?3)la corretta procedura,prevede che l'allievo tenga le mani sul casco per dimostrare al DL di essere cosciente e soprattutto per NON attivare erroneamente il paracdute di emergenza:Questo,per poco non provoca la caduta dell'aereo!!!!Meglio che l'istruttore cambi mestiere...!

  • it looks like he deploys his reserve... but the bag flies off with the pilot.... so the JM must have cut it... unless reserves dont have the bag attached

  • @Haribo4life A reserve uses a "free bag" system. It is not attached in case of a horseshoe or other pilot chute entanglement mal.

    This jumpmaster failed big time. He almost killed at least himself and two other people by being unprepared. What if that static line hangup did not clear when the reserve was deployed.......

  • jesus fucking christ and this song is not helping lol

  • Fuck Static line jumps...We're not doing Airborne jumps! AFF all the way!

  • Some tell this kid to get his feet and knees together. That is about all he can trust with that crew!!!!

  • 1-jumpmasterdid not have a knife on his leg.

    2-Knife was not attached to a rope attached to the jumpmaster(he could have dropped the knife)

    3-jumpmaster almost fumbled for the knife and did not keep his cool.

    4-Student pulled their reserve before the cutaway,,,

    5-overall shit jumpmaster!

  • Instructor = idiot.

  • OMFG!!!!

  • why the music ?

  • ask for a knife from the pilot? ...

  • Id have shit myself. Then when I landed I would have made the instructor eat shit with my fist in his face!

  • Static Line FAIL

  • if he "would" have cut the static line . . . . how?? would it then be possibe for the main to deploy? wouldnt the jumper have then plummeted to the earth trailing a cut static line until the AAD deployed the reserve??

  • @LODIECHODIE they cut you from the plane after you see the knife. then you immediately carry out reserve drills and come down on the reserve parachute.

  • @LODIECHODIE Simply pull your reserve handle... do NOT wait for AAD fire.

  • @Esgee7898 - how is the AAD going to fire if you're suspended under the plane and not falling? AADs do not fire unless you're blowing through 750 to 1000 feet and hauling ass when you do.

  • hoooly shit he almost brought the whole plane down

  • Id hate to be the next jumper

  • The way he searches for something to cut the line... it's like a first person drama. MW2 is put to shame.

  • All I can say is "Damn Dude"

  • "Should you become hung up, you WILL be retrieved into the aircraft. However, remain alert, should you break free during retrieval carry out your first point of flight procedure and activate your reserve if necessary."

  • @Roch3VP what's that from?

    I was told to wait till the line is cut with knife then do reserve drills

  • And the knife mennnnnnnn???????

  • jesus how was he allowed to jumpmaster a flight,cant even keep his cool,never mind not knowing where the knife was but shouting like that?not on

  • @ricardod19 Any DZO worth a damn would not let him instruct a student again. 1) Unprepared for a very possible mal. situation. 2) Panic most likely because he does not practice emergency procedures dealing with dispatching students, therefore the procedure never becomes "automatic" so to speak.

  • H O LL Y S H I T !! !!!

  • Wow, I think there was more adrenalin pumping in the plane. Glad it all came out sweet. Nice one guys

  • Freaky FREAKY !!!! You lucky bastards (or real cool blooded pros: RESPECT for this incredible good reaction of cutting the static line!). You all could have died from it. I know people who didn't have that destiny of yours. Pooooh !...

  • @Thegibolin WTF? You serious? JM never cut it. The student pulled his reserve and the opening of the reserve pulled loose the hangup. Lucky ass shit right there. Easily could have brought down the plain all because the JM wasn't prepared with a hook knife just for that right there. 

  • @albertabirdman Even more freaky, then... There is a ggod angel for both students and instructors! ;-)

  • Years ago when I was jumping static line on rounds it was drilled into us :

    Hang up?

    Hands on helmet

    Wait for instructor to cut line

    Then deploy reserve

    There never was any mention of what to do if instructor failed to find sharp object in the a/c. Get gnawing perhaps?

  • I believe I can fly

    I believe I can touch the sky

    I think about it every night and day

    Spread my wings and fly away...nope I cant fly away cos I am just caught on the stupid aircraft.

  • URGENT USPA RULE IMPLEMENTATION

    Due to an alarming epidemic infiltrating skydiving videos, anyone who holds an A, B, C, or D license, or anyone else who has ever jumped out of an airplane, is no longer allowed to select music for any skydiving video posted on the internet. It is the USPA's goal that such disgraceful and appalling judgement shown by USPA members cease immediately. You're all giving skydiving a bad name!

  • How does that even happen?! I jumped static lines in my license progression, and I don't really see how that could even happen? Did it get knotted?

  • Either that guy wasn't trained properly or hes a fucking idiot. He should never of deployed his reserve while hung up, he should place his hands on his head to let the jump master know hes aware of the hang up, wait for the jump master to cut his static line and then he can pull his reserve. He could of brought the whole fucking plane down!

  • @joniknight By the looks of the instructors training or complacency I would guess the student was not properly trained.

  • KNIFE KNIFE KNIFE FUCK!!!!!!

  • Rule #1 NEVER pitch your reserve while attached to the plane....

    Rule #2 NEVER let someone who hates you rig your static line....

    I cannot begin to comprehend what just happened there.

  • knife ??!! KNIIIFE!!!!!!!!

  • KNIFE!!!

  • It doesn't look like something a gear check would have seen. The container opened, pin popped.... Whatever was causing the lock was concealed within the container

  • Videos like these would be much better educational tools for upcoming jumpers and instructors if they didn't have ridiculous music dubbed over them

  • whuah, how much worse can a static line jump go?

    1. bad precheck, it's the instructors responsibility to make sure the line is fittet correctly

    2. no knife

    3. didn't instruct the student NOT to pull the reserve when he's hanging on the plane! In my training they told us a couple of times. Just imagine what would have happended if he didn't come loose, he could have pulled the whole plane down!

    anyways, thnx for sharing the video! always good to see how not to do it ;)

  • shit music

  • What could've happened because the guy was really scared for something...

  • Just so you know, in videos such as this one, I'd much rather hear the sound of them yelling and the wind rushing around, not some band playing. Ya KNOW?

  • I wanted to SKYDIVE! Not SKYFLY!

  • wow..... who packed the rig?

  • I want to meet the asshole who packed your rig......... wow..... Imagine if your reserve got tangled w/ the elevator....

  • When I got down I would have smacked the JM and the packer in the face. Especially the packer, actually punchings to good for him, a bit of 2x4 with a rusty nail should do the trick.

  • @dreidesq It's the responsibility of the JM and the jumper to do a gear check. Period. If the packer did something wrong, the only way they know is by being informed from the supervising rigger or the jumper BEFORE the jump thanks to a gear check.

  • @featheredsnake462 How do you check how the gear was packed by the packer if it's already packed in the container? This is a bag lock which would indicate a packer double stow error or worse bag rotation. No amount of JM flight line check would see that problem regardless of any ops manual spec, unless at your drop zone they pack the kit at flight line and get it signed off?

  • @dreidesq it's not a classic baglock. Looks like the the staticline knoted itself somewhere before the rip point, so it couldn't even release the bridle. And since the staticline is always outside the bag, this is easy to check, and is 100% the responsibility of the Instructor. Correct me if i'm wrong, I'm still a student myself, just recalling what i've learned.

  • @dreidesq Bag lock does not keep the d-bag in the container. Bag lock happens when the d bag comes out of the container but doesn't release the canopy. A double stow would have zero effect on the d bag leaving the container. If you pause the video at the right moment you can see the static line is routed in some kinda fucked up way that is keeping two of the flaps closed.

  • @dreidesq .

    only way you can be SURE about your rig is if you packed it YOURSELF! period.

    at least when it comes to civilian sport jumping.

    .

    in the military we could care less cause we're jumping an anonymous chute from a pile and the riggers are jumping with chutes out of the same big pile.

    .

    (though i've wondered if, when a rigger jumps, he checks the chute log book to see if it's one he packed. and if it is?????? hahahaha)

    .

  • @sterling9595mike "only way you can be SURE about your rig is if you packed it YOURSELF! period."

    Bull shit. I'm careful, but I'm as capable of making mistakes as anyone. You can't be SURE of anything, although I'm not SURE about that.

  • Wow. That JM wil never EVER forget his knife again.

    Talking about a close call.

    Thx for sharing the video btw. I'll show it in a training session.

  • wow. Near Death Experience.

  • Dude, complacency kills...

    When I was shooting video regularly, the guy who ran the video concession at the drop zone (this big fat fuck who was a friend of the DZO but could not fly video worth a shit himself) actually made fun of me for carrying a hook knife.

    I got a little pissed but calmed down and filed him away as one to keep an eye out for in the incident reports.

    He used to do tandems as well and could not exit stable, had to throw himself stable with the drogue every fucking time.

  • Major fail.

    Both on the instructor's side and student.

    deploying the reserve there could of cost him his life. Had the reserve been stuck in the tail of the plane, it would of torn down his last chance of possibly making it out of this alive...

  • close one

  • Fantastic jumpmaster, not checking for hook knife before pushing out the students.

    Didn't anyone think to bust an instrument, take the broken glass and do a little cutting?

    Nice the pilot remained calm, and the JM was so hyper. Still, check for hook knife and then don't forget a bit of glass.

  • @jjdiver That's funny. I do remember someone suggesting the piece of glass trick during my instructor training. I never took that as a serious solution however to simply keeping an extra hook knife on board the plane.

  • would have been better if the music wasn't playing. And fault on instructors part, not knowing where the hook knife was, Hang ups are always a possibility (albeit a rare one but nevertheless) and instructor should know exactly where it is. Fault on students part for deploying the reserve (BIG fault on students part :P) And yes, ive also been told in the event of a hang up, hands on head, and wait for static line to be cut, Then and ONLY then, should emergency drills be carried out

  • as long as hes alright eh? jack twat!

  • If he'd have hooked the tail with that reserve, it'd been game over for them all :-(

  • No it wouldnt, It happened in Australia some years back, all but the dude on the tail survived even the pilot. Idiot in the cabin was stuffing around with his pilot chute and let it go out the door.

  • I would have knocked that cunt out when I got down. WTF???

  • @gymlord

    You mean the 'cunt' who misplaced the hook knife or the 'cunt' who didn't check whether there was a knife onboard?

    Or take the easy way and only blame the student?

  • Yes an him aswell.

  • Comment removed

  • fuck me. instructor must have absolutely shit himself when he saw that twat reach for his handles and the reserve start to deploy. love how chilled the pilot was

  • richtig glück gehabt

  • Not sure how the training goes in america, but when I did my RAPS training in england I was taught that in the event of a static line hangup you should place both hands on your head, look up at the j/m and wait for him to get a knife and cut the static line. Under NO circumstances should you pull the reserve or cut away (becasue of your RSL would deploy the reserve anyway if you cut away). That is the worst thing you can do!

  • @Shivinski7 Damn right,,,we were taught the same thing back in 1975 here in USA,,,I guess today with all the fancy gear people don't think it will happen...or maybe he was taught to do that and just forgot under the stress of the moment...

    I thought that reserve was going to wrap on that horiz. stap. SOL then....

  • Holy shit that was scary! Seemed like they were all gonna get fucked on that deal.

  • holy fuck...my hands are all clammy...

  • He could've used his time hanging to do some simulated tunnel work :)

  • lucky, well kind of, in the second instance

  • It's a US band:

    Sublime - Same in the end

    Love it :)

  • @salto94 love the video, my favorite job and my favorite band!

  • who play this song????

  • Jesus when he pulled his reserve I thought it was all over.

  • the instructor is an idiot i would kill him when i landed as he didnt have a knife to hand and you could seriously die

  • Not to mention he obviously doesn't understand the gear, rigging a static line, or MAYBE the concept of a gear check/JMPI. Maybe someone should follow up with some training so he doesn't kill someone and crash n airplane.

  • Never thought that this kind of thing will be actually filmed!

    The instructor must know where the knife is. The student must know that if he pull the reserve when he is hanging on the static line, everybody will die.

  • @DavidTennantsgirlie i dont even do static line jumps and i still carry a hook knife

  • ooooooo fuck...

  • Oh Man , wen you said about it , i cudn even think about that it was this serious...

    Alhamdulillah

  • His JM should have had a hookknife on hand. You really cant blame the student for pulling the reserve, in all fairness ti him he did hang there for quite a bit before deciding to do something himself. Glad it all worked out for everyone involved...

  • Most Staticline students are taught to let go of the airplane, perform a count while arching, and check for a parachute. if there is nothing there they are told to perform emergency proceedures. Student in tow is rarey addressed to the student because it won't ever happen because of the modern gear designs now used and that the instructor holding the staticline will do his job and give a GOOD gear check/JMPI.

  • I can't believe he pulled the reserve. That seems like the worst thing to do in that situation.

  • Glad i can say I walked away from that one

  • I'm glad you made it, bro. That could have been worse!

  • he almost killed everyone on that plane what a dumbass!?!?! oh and where was the j/m's knife????.......

  • He is not a dumbass. Shit happens and everyone lived. You cant imagine what was going thru thats dudes mind. Plus he was most likely a student. Thats a messed up way to spend your first couple of jumps. Hope the dude is still jumping. He seemed calm while stuck.

  • Ohh man, close call.

    I'm taking my bro for his first jump this weekend...i'll be sure to show him this right beforehand.

  • atleast he kept his arch!

  • WOW! Moment of truth! Glad it worked out so well.... His chute was really close to that stabilizer, what a mess an entanglement would have made! These things that "never" happen... Phew! =)

  • HOLY FUCK.

  • Hanging on static out of plane... That gotta be tough but also awesome feeling! More adrenalin in couple of seconds than some experience throuhg all lifetime.
