It might looks kinda easy in this vid - but being in a situation like that causes so fucking much adrenaline pumping through your body, it's simply unbelivable, even if it's only a simulated situation. Therefore: A big "well done" to this dude. Great work.

I can't imagine his 'auto-pop' would be guaranteed to work well (yeah, I know the 'chute is self-righting) if he's upside down like that, so top job by the dm.

Have you ever seen a skydiver who's chute didn't open when he arrived on the ground? I luckily haven't, but from chuting experience I can imagine it's nothing you enjoy seeing.
