I'd say that jumpmaster just lost a stripe.

Ain't that hook supposed to be hanging on something?

I wonder if after he got on the ground, he used the hook on that static line to beat the man behind him half to death?

It was his fault and the trooper behind him doing the equipment check . Once I was hooked up I kept hard downward pressure on that static line till I passed it off to the jump master.

I just want to know if his reserve worked and he landed safely. Nothing like really emergency training.

Maybe it was supposed to be "what if training" . Shouldn't that hook have a closure on it? Never did that so just asking. Look at this video the hooks have a latch on them . 3.50 into video.
If link doesn't work just google Paratroopers jumping from plane.

3 minutes 50 seconds in when they hook up there is a latch on the hooks.

Luckily he'd know in the first 10-15 seconds there was an utoh and be able to react accordingly.

I'm with diver though. The majority of the responsibility falls on him. I don't remember doing any "what happens" scenarios, but maybe once you get into the different phases of being a "jumper" they did them. I am shocked that the jump master didn't catch it.

Looks like it might be photoshopped. Open static line hook looks a little different and you'd have hard time pulling off a dumb move like that (not saying it couldn't be done). The hook is designed to close on a pull - you hook the cable thru tug the hook and it closes and latches (note round button).

If that was real you'd certainly know it before "check-one-thousand" (I hope) and be reaching for the reserve handle![Linked Image]
