How to Survive a Parachute Jump Without a Parachute #shorts

Your parachute has failed, and you'll hit the ground in 60 seconds. You're falling at around 190 km an hour. Your best bet to slow down is increasing your air resistance by making an X shape.

We're not going to lie to you; the odds aren't great, but here's how you could survive. Swamps, snow, and trees may all help cushion your fall, though they all have downsides. Water's also not a terrible idea, but try to land bolt upright. It could maybe stop you getting knocked out by the impact and drowning.

If you're landing in a city, look for a roof to slow your fall. You may end up sacrificing your legs, but it could protect your vital organs and boost your survival chances. Power lines can be surprisingly effective and really did save someone who fell from over 10,000 ft.

But the best approach is getting your friends to catch you in a 30s me net, like the current record holder for the highest skydive without a parachute did. Still, you're better off skydiving the boring but much safer way with not one but two parachutes.
