And that's how Soldiers break legs!

Dude you were reaching for the ground. Eyes on the horizon son...

I collected 212 jumps in my Army career. Watching this makes me nostalgic up until the plf...then it makes my whole body hurt.

Brings back good memories. Shithooks were fun, but jumping from a Huey was better in my opinion.

Thanks for this, trooper. All the way.

German 1st Airborne Division between 1978 and 1990. Jumping from a chopper was my absolute favourite. I miss it big time! Thanks for the video man. Brought back a lot of cool memories!

One hell of a way to make a living you gotta love it! Remember everyone deployed. God-bless America.

“That was an unsatisfactory PLF trooper, do it again”

NoGo, keep your feet and knees together!

[beyondooflife]

Omg 😲😎 with that landing can easily break the legs

[gary]

He kept feet and knees together the whole way down and separated them dramatically at landing. That’s a No-Go Airborne.

[roytsusui]

It's a beautiful thing, still love it!

[zombiefryd]

Feet and knees together until JUST before he hits the ground... SO CLOSE

PLF (Parachute Landing Fall) for those who didn't know...
I'm not going to criticize his landing, I'm sure his jump master took care of that...

1:57 - You're lucky! Next time high speed it might not work out as well!

[moncorp]

Those landings are so freakin' hard!

Dear Sgt. Austin Berner, thank you for your service and scarifies! The boot-mounted gopro was a great idea and you look awesome in this video!! Very interesting to watch how you are actually "maneuvering" your parachute. Kudos to USA Military Channel for uploading this !

[jayrosado]

Thank you for being cool and your service

As a former Airborne Instructor, that was not feet and knees together when he made contact with the ground. That could have been a real world injury
