SINGAPORE (Team Geared Up) - I cannot think of a worse nightmare then this happening on your first parachute jump. Both the chute and the reserve chute fail to open correctly. The student is prepared by the instructor for a hard hitting landing by positioning knees together as they spin dramatically towards the ground.
I won’t spoil the ending, but there’s bone crunching arrrrgh noises.
Knew you’d enjoy that.
-Robin.
