DougH 270 #2 September 25, 2012 God DAMN. Talk about the abuse just getting piled on! No cutaway on the round? I guess it could have been a number of factors that made the guy ride it out. Operator malfunction. Unconscious operator. Equipment malfunction. He got dragged like crazy, but it looked like he avoided some more body breaking impacts on some of those oscillations!"The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

obelixtim 150 #6 September 25, 2012 Can't believe he didn't just pull in a line. Not exactly a stealth landing.....My computer beat me at chess, It was no match for me at kickboxing.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amazon 7 #7 September 25, 2012 That is the perfect training motivational aid for Drag Training. We used to hook up a line and a set of risers to a truck... or a large boat and have the students release from being dragged... I think the Russians have some way of releasing at least one side... if not.. Investing in a hook knife might be indicated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skyjumpenfool 2 #8 September 25, 2012 I counted 3 excellent stand up landings before he got his ass dragged all over the place. Agreed, some were able to help but really didn't do much?

Shredex 0 #10 September 25, 2012 No cutaway on those? We had one at the DZ Sunday. Picked up the freshly mowed grass and formed a nice little devil. Luckily it was after everyone had landed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

muff528 3 #13 September 26, 2012 Wow. Where is a tree when you need one?I like the titles of some of the other videos. "Very Unfortunate Parachute Accident" ....There are "fortunate" ones? "Hand Grenade Training Goes Wrong" ...Do you really need to see the video to find out what happens? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

popsjumper 2 #19 September 26, 2012 I don't know what that guy did to the dust devil but it sure pissed it off and it chased his ass all over the place. The guy that dove at him...and missed.
