Good (or maybe bad) timing. I’m heading up to Tahoe for a week where I plan to use the skydiving gift certificate my daughter gave me. I will let the pros pack the chutes…
How did they test the best way to pack a parachute? Like Calvin’s dad would say, they packed a bunch of different ways and observed each parachuter as they fell. The one who survived is the chute that was packed best.
I went skydiving once, “once” being the operative word. When I think back on how sketchy the operation was I’m amazed I escaped with nothing worse than a broken toe.

Not a place to express one’s creativity, I’m afraid. :-)

The packer needs to test it first.

You should always pack your own chute.

If at first you don’t succeed, try…….Does not apply to skydiving.

How many chutes could a chute packer pack if a chute packer could pack chutes?

If I was a parachuter, I’d make sure to stay on her good side!

The only thing that’ll work properly is his poop chute.
