      What he did at the end is known as Canopy Piloting or "swooping" and is not something you'd learn as a military jumper, so he's got lots (a hell of a lot) of civilian jumping in his spare time. Not saying he isn't a great military jumper too.

    the sad thing is how staged this was.. If the skydiver actually went head down he could easily break 300mph (terminal velocity is based on surface area, its not "120mph" as claimed) and he could have spiraled for the finish line from the moment he'd opened his canopy... but of course its TV so they have to make it look like it was close (which the skydiver did an excellent job of by timing his turn so that he finished just ahead of the truck) but it was never really a contest at all.

      +lubricatedjellybeans The current world record speed skydive is 346mph (from standard skydiving altitude) Felix Baumgartner's jump from space went over 730mph (ofc he didn't have much atmosphere for most of the dive)
      you can absolutely fall faster than 120mph, an average head down skydive is around 180mph, 120mph is an average speed falling belly to earth (increases surface area with the same weight=lower speed) Get off youtube and go repeat junior high school physics.
