Must be some crazy crosswinds in that stadium. Reminds me of the time I jumped off the garage roof with an umbrella.

Yup, it was really worse the more I watched haha.
That was nuts.
Hey, you guys want to see a picture of my face on a Times Square billboard at a really cool Veterans Day event I was at in New York City on Monday?
...so would I, too bad that a window blocked it out. ;)

None of those jokers seemed to be very content with the Sergeant Major's scheme of marching up and down the square.
In fact – it looked like most of them would have been much better off reading a book, practicing the piano, or going to the picture show…
…one thing is for sure, that crowd DEFINITELY don’t look like they are ready to stamp the trademarks of democracy and humanitarianism throughout the furthest flung corners of the empire !!!
Wow. That was even worse than the time I watched a group of 160th pilots rehears for a battalion change of command.
Real AF!! They are mostly support trades, likely logistics and not exactly known for high dress and deportment standards. Let alone taking time to practice drill. I've been seeing a lot of morons that say it's only the CoC at fault but drill is the most basic of skills. As an individual soldier, sailor or airman, you're responsible for representing the uniform and these are all pieces of shit.
Between this, some school principal justifying only playing a Palestinian "peace" song, another one asking any military member NOT wear their uniform to the school and university lecturers screaming out their car window at marching troops (Fuck You). This Remembrance Day was a perfect example of how Trudeau has fucked our military, our image and country as a whole.
I'm sure I'm missing something, but it looks like they made a standard breaking turn to the right and then turbulence/ rollers hit them.
To be fair, I've seen and experienced this and the best way out is to keep your canopy pressurized. It appears my man tried to make that happen, but the turbulence made that impossible. Once you hit the "roller" (as we called them back in day) you're along for the ride.
Brian Germain designed a canopy which could minimize this, it was named the Jedei and I have one in my garage, but the concept never made it (to my knowledge) to wide spread use. I know it saved me at least once.
Back to the video, once the left side of the canopy collapsed, that poor bastard was along for the ride.

Same with a naval hospital staff...
My man was transiently factory reset.....
I rewatched the skydivers. Jesus...
You can see a flag (Argentina's?) and the wind is strong. Watching their canopy control, those guys were in over their heads, jumping into a stadium in those winds. You can see the crosswind push them into the stands...minus the one guy who took a bathroom break.
You can see their control inputs were over the place and they panicked, making things worse. I hope they didn't injure any spectators.

I can hear my SDI right now: "That's it, ladies, straggle like fucking heard of sheep. I want to hear you Bah like sheep! Ready begin!"
It's the modern Canadian military. Some of them may already identify as sheep.
Way to assume their genus, bigot. ;)
(and much respect to my Canadian friends here on the site)
