Leg strap testicle entanglement Incident

[medusa 0]

I got this silly question I been asking my self, after watching Something about mary.

Have you heard of any skydiver who have had any problems with their testicles during Skydive?.

Here are some funny configurations:

- Head down Premature reserve opening. Ending in a Legs Strap-Testicle severe entaglement

- Pilot chute hesitation. Due to a bridel testicle severe entaglemt

Well jhonathan, that's a fairly male name, have you ever had one shift through the jump and then felt it on opening? It's uncool.

Well there are line-overs, and there are nut-unders... neither of which I wish upon anyone!

My Brother once had a legstrap Nut Under on a Bungee Launch. 185 foot Tower in Chatanooga, TN. They used a Modified Parachute Harness and 3 Ring release to initiate the launch. Everything was good while they were stretching the Bungee Cord, Soon as they released him.... You could hear the scream for miles. Then as he neared the Apex, you see him frantically trying to adjust himself before coming back down.. to no avail and another scream. Repeat about 5 more times before they were finally able to get him back down.

Ahhh! Q: what malfunction is worse then the line over? A: The nut under.

The deployment will look normal from the ground but you will hear the jumpers cries. lol. It happened to a friend of mine only a couple weeks ago. Poor bugger.

Had someone deploy under me without a wave off. I already had my pilot chute in hand. Sorta did a hard ass barrel roll and throw. Body possition was all off and sure enough the nut under struck. I got slung so hard back intothe saddle that it ripped the stitching in the seat of my jumpsuit. Can we say black and blue for weeks. Wasn't and fun what so ever!!!!

Recommendations: Wear "briefs" underwear (not boxers) to keep 'em firmly in place and under control. Wear the leg straps tight so that they don't have room to slide around.

Keep your nuts happy.

Well, it's not all peaches and roses... if you're big breasted, then you have potential guillotine chest strap syndrome...

Words of wisdom!

I hate (repeat: Hate!) briefs. I wear boxers and actually opt to not wear underwear at all most of the time (for those that wanted a bit too much info ).

I wear boxer-briefs when I skydive though. It makes ajusting the harness a lot less uncomfortable and I must say it does give me a lot more confidence in the dreaded nut-under department.

I wear briefs usually. Especially when doing athletic things. It keeps everything where its supposed to be. never had a nut-under.

It also avoids that situation in that Friends episode when one of the girls' boyfriends shows up at the coffee shop wearing baggy shorts & puts his feet up.

I know girls that have had stuff pinched by leg straps Eve.

I friend of mine had a rig that didn't fit him to well. His poor boys paid for it many times. He told me about one jump where he felt one of his boys slip under the leg strap as he was reaching for his PC. He siad he held the PC for a few extrez seconds looking at the ground and thought to himself........"It will hurt less if I go in!"

Pouch it out before bail out or you risk pain for a week.
I've had nut pain for a week once from a jump with rental gear.
So ladies, if i'm adjusting before exit, please understand.

[GQ_jumper 4]

i've had plenty of nut-unders, thanks to those incredibly well made military static line harnesses, with no padding on the leg straps. And you can't adjust the leg straps when you have combat equipment on, you spend the whole ride dreading the jump cuz you can feel your boys under the strap but can't do anything about it.

Oh yeah, well let's hear you say that while in the middle of childbirth!

And I'll bet you can't pee on a tree while standing up.

Finally, it occurs to me that this is the kind of thread that would be good for a "Men's Forum", mirroring the kind of conversations that often occur in the "Women's Forum".

I only had a "partial" nut-under once....even so, I'd agree with your friend.
