I'm a little surprised by this, don't modern military parachutes have a simple one hit quick release button? Or did I miss it?

To niby elitarne oddziały? Ci goście są tak nieudolni i ślamazarni, jak by wykonywali pierwszy skok w życiu. A już ten na 1:50 filmu, który ląduje na lewym kolanie zgiętej nogi, to po prostu żałosne. Inni spadają na ziemię jak worki kartofli. Po prostu żałosne. Nie uczą ich, jak to robić?
