quote Peter Normington:Thanks Marcellla,I’m told it can be quite painful if dangley bits get trapped in the harness when the ‘chute opens!

That’s so very true Peter – Many years ago when I was younger (and dafter) Alison and I both did a sponsored Parachute jump at Strathallen Airfield in Perth. The jump was with a static line and we had one full days training to prepare. The only thing I wasn’t told was to ensure my harness did not go over any dangly bits (I guess they thought that was common sense)…..not to me it wasn’t *hair*
First thing I did once I got back onto the ground was to check no bits were missing or squashed -googleye- (oogle)
