please forgive my laughing, I have seen far worse. I spent 11 years filming people & you never know what someone will do when they feel pressured on the hop & pop. I've dumpt on my back once, & flipped through the risers, jumping a canopy that was a 7 cell (serial # 666) felt so ashamed that when I landed, I was looking around waiting on a comment from anyone that may have noticed. only until we watched the video, we figured out what exactly what happened. Blue Skies...Black kevin! hahahahaha
try it from a dc3, you merely barrel rolled. I got rocked back on exit & had to.... legs out hard to right myself.... looks like you simply didn't raise your left arm over your head as you went to pull. stand facing a wall, feet 3 feet from it...lean agaisnt said wall, and with both hands, now remove one. without centering you wind up twisting either direction. best part is that ya got something out fast, & it was a quick pull. but.... unstable. you lived!
Looks like he had freaked when he pulled the primary chute and it was underneath him due to an unstable exit. "Hop & pop" can be scary firsts. Thx for sharing this. The cut-away is at 0:29
lmao, on another vid i said i wanted to go skydiving. after seeing how far away the ground is from the camera, i dont think i wanna do it anymore. highs dont bug me, but falling an extreme distance does HAHA

Wow dude this is just like my first jump from the weekend. Check out my vid.

Door exit on a student clear & pull? Oh well. My early static line jumps were from a Twin Beech 18.That was in the '70s. No step, no strut.
