How to Survive Falling Without a Parachute
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 พ.ค. 2024
- You're more than 3.6 km (12,000 ft) above the Earth. And there's no turning back now. But as you jump out of the plane, and see how beautiful the Earth looks below you, you start to think that this might not be so bad. Then you pull the cord to open your parachute, and all your worst fears come true. There's no parachute coming out, and now you're plummeting towards the ground at about 200 km/h (125 mph). You've only got about a minute before you hit the ground. Is there anything you can do to save yourself?

My brain: you’ll never need it.
My anxiety: LeArN oR dIE.
I had this feeling when I seen the title my body was like just in case watch it shit happens 😂
This comment deserves more likes 😂
what did I do
As a skydiver that anxiety is always there lmao. leArN oR dIE indeed
Yep 😅
I was honestly gonna scroll past this video, but my brain was like "Dude, you never know."
Lol
It was about to say -dude u never know u can scroll from your left hand too

Your comment inspired me to watch the whole video 😂😂
Falling without a parachute won't kill you but landing without one is another story.
Semper Fi
A valid point worthy of contemplation. Excellent hypothesis.
@@jurgenblick5491 what
😂🤣👏👍
It's not the fall that kills you, it's the sudden stop.
Brilliant 😂

Who's watching this while falling without a parachute
Hi😀.
😂😂
You got this buddy! 👍
If you survived respond!
at mars, I fell from my space ship, tried to just Jump off 50 feet, but accidently slipped, so I am saying that I feel off and Survived. I asked Earth to hurt me not the same way as mars did, to this the earth replied pat a Cunt. Now what does that mean
Just double jump when you're about to hit the floor.
Triple jump if you have the Atomizer.
😂😂😂
yh that’s the tactic lmao
U mean like super smash brothers ? W
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I recall reading about a US B-17 bomber aircrew member who survived a fall from his aircraft without a parachute. He ended up landing on top of a train station in either France or Germany and the roof gave way in steps and cushioned his fall. He actually had no serious injuries, though he was dazed. German troops who confronted him couldn't believe he survived the fall without a parachute, but the damage to the roof was apparent. It can happen, but the chances are slim.
Occasionally, people survive a fall after reaching terminal velocity. Glad to see the technical breakdown on how to best survive.
Exactly what you did, you read that and all articles are actual occurrences.
He actually had multiple wounds. His right arm was barely attached and also had a few other fractures, It's still considered a miracle he survived. There are about 5 people known to have survived this kind of fall. A Serbian woman holds the world record for surviving the highest free fall without parachute, she was the sole survivor of a terrorist attack on a commercial plane.
I'm pretty sure there is also a documented case of an airman surviving by having his fall broken by several layers of thin tree branches before then hitting ground covered in 6-feet deep snow? So yeah, miraculous survivals do happen...
Most skydivers would actually advise you to cut your main and deploy your reserve. If that also fails, which is about a 1:1,000,000 probability, you've got about 5 seconds left to find that swamp.
Hey guys I died. This method doesn't work in the new update.
Damn

@Алиф Даль Мим no it is safe, i do it myself and i know the safety behind it. We also have 2 parachutes in case there is something wrong with the first one. Driving a car has more (deadly) accidents percentage

Just place a water bucket below you right before you hit the ground. You can also use invulnerability frames by logging out and logging back in just before you touch the ground.
🤣🤣🤣
this is brilliant. gave me a good laugh.
You can also just activate creative mode🧐
if you don't have a water bucket for some reason, you can also use twisted vines, ladders, scaffolding, or even sweet berries!
@@thevalarauka101 If you have a crafting bench near you and you're quick enough, you may be able to craft a boat in time as well. Also, if you have a saddle, you could get on a pig if you time it right.
I avoid leaving a perfectly good airplane with or without a chute and it's worked for me so far.

Falling without a parachute
Packages start as low as $100
Because it would only happen once😂
My father fell roughly 15ft/20ft from scaffolding & landed on his feet. He survived, but despite having the best Dr’s, multiple surgeries and a long stay at a wonderful Rehab facility, he still lived in pain & misery for the next 40 yrs.
I love the part where you actually survive this fall rather than die. No matter what you do, if you fall from high enough without a parachute, nothing you do can save you lmao
People have survived falls from terminal velocity. They all basically lucked out and hit something that cushioned them (Deep snow, trees, a power line, and an ant hill are all examples of real things that enabled people to survive terminal falls.)
🤣🤣🤣
Let's be honest, most of us are here *JUST IN CASE*
Every one of us

Long answer :you can but it's hard
@@bacon_haired_dude7050 yeah it’s *IMPOSSIBLE*

I have no idea why this video showed up on my account, but I'm very grateful for it. Very educational. I doubt I will ever be in a situation like that, but you never know huh.
As someone who will probably never go skydiving I need to know this.
If your parachute fails, dont worry, you've got the rest of your life to figure it out.

Dude that was clever 🤣

Heard it off another video, it made me laugh so I thought I'd share it

Good information to know. I was on the Alaskan Airlines flight 1282 when a door blew off January 5th. Ive seen similar videos like this one but still dreaded the thought of having to use this information. It still didn't make it any less scary.
Are you going to be joining the class action lawsuit? It seems only right for going through an experience like that.
near my hometown someone on a jump with a jump instructor had their parachutes fail. The customer survived, but landed on the instructor who died. Turns out the company didnt have proper certification and was shut down as a result
Imagine your on a bus and someone just lands strait through it
Lmao
Scarred for life
😂😂😂 the bus will break if someone lands on it and I will kill that person for breaking my bus
😂😂
😂😂😂😂
I actually tried this two years ago when i couldn't open my parachute and it worked. I landed on a 4 storey roof top. When i woke up, it was all a dream
Llol
Hahaha...😁
Oh cool say that to my neck and ribs
i actually has hope for a second
Lol
Thank you, really needed this
No no no! Don't do that or u will die!
Pretty much my life, falling with no parachute, simply hoping to survive.

I'll remember this if I end up in an aeroplane accident
1. Fall on a large, stretchy net.
2. Don’t jump out of an airplane without a parachute.
3. Don’t jump out of an airplane.
4. Stay on the ground.

Underated Comment!
I actually considered jumping out of a plane without a chute at some point. Oh, but that was only after it landed, and I had to evacuate by jumping onto an emergency slide from the door in the case of an onboard fire.
0:49 "you've got only a minute before you hit the ground" - i think that's enough to watch a 6 minutes long video about how can i survive it
"it's better to land in a roof"
Oh yeah for better looting opportunities
Fr, I started getting cod vibes when he said that lol.

I had a dream last night that I was being forced to solo jump for the first time and I was thinking about how I can survive if my parachute doesn't open -- and today this is in my recommended (no I have not watched any remotely similar videos lately). I was also worried in my dream that I'd pass out and not be able to open my chute.
I've watched the video now to jump out of a plane without a parachute and test this education I've received!!!

True story. We worked on the 8th floor of a building in Dallas, looking down. Richard says "This reminds me of the time I was in Vietnam. We were on a helicopter. It lifts off. It's 80 feet above the ground. A mortar hits the engine. We're dead ducks! We're going to crash and burn and probably explode too." What does Richard do? He jumps out of the 'copter! Yes, he's got military boots, body armor, helmet, the works (but...no parachute). Also, the ground was probably marshy. The copter crashes; everyone on board is killed. Richard was knocked out and badly beaten up, but eventually regains consciousness (to his amazement). Followed by months in the hospital of course.

Entire life (ending in few seconds)
I rather die than unable to move forever and sitting on a wheel chair
That is a true statement. 😂
I know of only two falls from very high altitude with no chute where people survived. Both were WW2 gunners in those giant flying fortress type planes. Both free fell from around 20,000 with no chute! Nicholas Alkemade and Alan Magee. The first guy was a Brit- he landed in a snow bank, the other guy was American and he crashed through the glass roof of a train station in France. Both eventually made nearly 100% recovery and went on to live decades longer after the war.

My uncle was a pilot in Vietnam and his plane was hit, when he jumped out of the plane his shoot wouldn't open. He did exactly what they did in this video and he aimed himself towards trees. Unfortunately he didn't use his feet first but he fell towards his stomach into the trees. One of the sticks went through his eye. But he survived. He climbed off the tree and crawled all the way back to safety. He had a glass eye. He's gone now but he survived it.

Great video!
But if you land on your feet and you haven't got any of the best landing spot options, how should you avoid your long bones from cutting thru the skin and stab you in the neck? You are protecting your head from up, but not from down. And I'm not kidding, it already happened to someone and I am curious.
