As you deploy your parachute, you go through that trap door and it accelerates and there's a little bit of slack on it. And then as it starts, you feel the tension starting to build. Holy shit, dude. We're talking stars after opening.

Yeah, we all have.
Yeah, we all have.
Yeah, we all have.
Yeah, but that. Back, neck, shoulders. But that in particular. They brought out G testing. I was not there for this, so I'm repeating a story that I heard. They brought out G testing sensors because they wanted to get an understanding of the opening shock load.

After sequentially breaking the sensors on multiple jumps in a row, they just left without any more interest in knowing how many G forces the tandem master was taking on opening. They measure ejection seat ride G forces with those things. They were breaking. Yeah. I don't doubt it. We would do four of those in a day. Oh yeah. Yeah.

Oh yeah. Oh, you can cut that thing away and it should, it even has a parachute with its own Cypress. Oh, interesting. What you're wearing on the tandem master in your chest is actually the bundle parachute. So you should be able to cut it away. It's a four point connection. Okay. It has its Cypress. It should open.

They don't always open because sometimes it will get a little bit out of control and you have to, one of the jumps you do, you have to self set your drogue. And the reason I'm saying you have to be, you have to be confident. Yes. And you have to be competent to, But on a normal operation, somebody is standing there setting your drogue for you. So you basically are shuttling the thing out.

You want to hold onto it until you get into the air, let go of it at the right time. You'll pitch over the top, like you'll come over the top and then you'll feel the drogue and you start to fall. One of the jumps you have to do is a self-set. So you go out without somebody holding onto your drogue.
