5TH RTB CH-47 CHINOOK AIRBORNE JUMP

A group of U.S. Army Rangers, assigned to the 5th Ranger Training Battalion, conduct an Airborne jump out of a CH-47 Chinook onto Stringer Drop Zone, Dahlonega, GA., February 20, 2020. These Army Rangers are jumping to stay current on jump status and to be proficient Paratroopers. (U.S. Army Reserve video by Staff Sgt. Austin Berner)

Damn feet and knees together guy... gonna break something

[@j_money5043]

i was worried watching that haha

[@Dreader1962]

Noticed that - plus he didn't hold into the wind based upon the smoke.

[@sebastianomariuzzo1398]

Just like Miss Birindelli

[@LRS11B]

LRS 104TH INF here. I made many of these jumps at Ft. Indiantown Gap. My wife witnessed one. She, and a group of wives watched. The CH47 kicked up so much wind on take off, my wife said it felt like being in a hurricane

[@desertdetroiter428]

Never liked Chinook or Huey blasts. Did them in Italy, but at least they were Hollywood jumps.

[@cr7neymar908]

u gotta work on your plf man

[@SaberStrength]

Feet and knees together!!!!!!!!

[@joeschneider732]

My son is in Germany and told me this is what he’ll be jumping out next!! Thanks for sharing!!! Be safe and God Bless!

[@3_bvp]

sky soldiers

[@joeschneider732]

Yes sir! He’s been there since Easter and has 3 jumps in and he loves it!!

[@boburwell9921]

Nothing like it on Earth

[@jasonarcher7268]

Great video man. I only got to make a couple of helicopter jumps, but they were pretty awesome. Daytime, Hollywood from a Chinook..... and toggles even? That's a pretty great jump.

[@lskdvn]

Hollywood? Did you not seem him lower his ruck?

[@sgtmayhem7567]

Thank you for posting this excellent video. Helicopter jumps are the best, I made 7 or 8 from a Chinook and 1 from a Huey in Recondo School. God Bless and stay safe to all Airborne personnel friendly to the USA.

[@survive-pro]

Watching this blew both my knees out 😬 feet and knees together folks

[@thomasloveless4800]

Eyes on the horizon……

[@reddevilparatrooper]

Feet and fucking knees together!!!!

[@fearxunix855]

So how does it work does the yellow rope pull your shoot when it comes off or do you have to pull it? Btw I have mad respect for you god bless you and everyone else in the military

[@crivyeller9845]

(Static line jumps) The yellow cord is the Static Line. It automatically pulls the chute out and then breaks off after exceeding the distance (I’m not 100% sure, but the yellow cord is secured to the top of the canopy by some rigging set up, I’m gonna assume it includes rubber bands so it can snap away). The reserve is the only parachute you can pull to deploy (red handle by the abdomen) Free fall jumps require a manual pull/deploy by the jumper for the main parachute

[@stephenhaney9337]

Im pissed my chinook jump got scratched heres to the next one

[@cindymichaud7111]

No words to describe my admiration for you Men who take on this endeavor. God bless you 🙏✝🙏💕

[@imranzazai7404]

Absolutely intresting and powerfull

[@jpcarter7392]

I went to Airborne School in 1993 & was assigned to a LRSU Company for 8 years... Looking back, I miss it & the folks that I served with..

[@user-yn4og2er7c]

Your descent looks pretty long, how many feet was this?

[@see_you_out_there]

RLTW gents, I came through there class 4/99!!

[@reddevilparatrooper]

My favorite jumps ever!!

[@thehighlife1232]

Bro definitely did not care about feet and knees together

[@classifiedsincebirth]

once the chute opens steer towards the rally point, less walking

[@williamsalas4705]

One of my favorite jumps 307th combat engineers.

[@d.burdett2232]

-1 chutes and alice packs? That's old school!

[@dennislock3415]

Loved the Chinook jump.

[@Dreader1962]

Chinook jumps were a walk in the park! Didn't know that they still were using the old chutes.

[@thomashenshallhydraxis]

Be honest, I thought dude was totally landing in the tree line.

[@JFDA5458]

Don't they teach "feet and knees together"?

[@tonydawg]

I jump 2 next week! My first rotary wing jump. Kinda nervous 😂

[@dionnetaylor9903]

[@Twistedpeppermint99]

God bless y'all!! I could never.

[@boburwell9921]

Nothing like it on Earth

[@TheBsniz]

Kinda rare to jump out of a Chinook. And I see why now. Not saying these guys aren't badass but the bird could have put everyone in it down on the ground faster than jumping.

[@MM22966]

It's not rare at all. It just depends what unit/base you are jumping at.

[@mouthwash884]

Airborne operations are antiquated and not used in actual combat anymore. However, while sure, the CH-47 can land quickly, it would be vulnerable to enemy fire while dropping off the personnel, this gets the bird in and out of the airspace as quickly as possible while delivering a fast reaction force.

[@MikeOxlong-m4j]

No rip-cord discipline hooah

[@user-yn4og2er7c]

Chinook jumps are way better than Charlies, I will choose rear exit over side door exit anytime!

[@davidaman5682]

Open canopy is a beautiful sight, HOOWAA Airborne all the way!

[@jacobhecks4977]

What parachute was that?

[@dennislock3415]

@1.21 Gigawatts Still using T-10's when I was in,are these new ones any better?

[@airbornegrandpaw6366]

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL , I still get butterflies, glad to see somebody still use round chutes. "ALL THE WAY"

[@tonylochner]

Wow 😮it reminds me of my days in the airborne division - thank you 🙏🏼

[@NasruddinTV]

Amazing i like this video

[@noahmorales7758]

How can someone dislike this video?

[@JW-zk3um]

Because their knees hurt. hahahahahaha

[@ebw16256]

Are all the landings that harsh?

[@randalunderhill831]

Yup, pretty much, that landing did not look particularly rough actually. It would have been better had his feet and knees stayed together. All PLFs are actually JFL anyway LOL

[@podolski-gc1sn]

Amazing..

[@scottfuller5194]

Yes....! Better than double door mass....in the winter......!

[@RaymondoLeeTravel]

Big respect 🫡

[@Dra741]
