DP - "Who had any idea the winds were going to be this high?!?"
Domino - "Everybody!"
At work watching this. The guy next to me actually was military and worked with this kind of stuff. He packed the parachutes and did jumps with the airborne. His stories are pretty badass
Fantastic footage. Great job guys. AIRBORNE!
thanks for the video. Brings back some fond memories. I was a bit surprised to see the paratroopers release their equipment so soon after leaving the aircraft. They were so close that dangling equipment could have caused some real problems. Well, any jump you can walk away from is a good jump.
You are very welcome Brotherofiam. Take care! /Tille, TeamM
Thank you for sharing. Such filming gives us earth bound folk a sense of your winged freedom. Semper Paratus Swedish Air Force. God Speed.
Great Video Be Safe Men & Women Airborne All The Way! Thank you All Pilots Also... De Oppresso Liber!
C-130 loadmaster here. Once dropped 609 jumpers in one day. Over 20,000 in the 1st six months I flew. Never hit the cars in the parking lot, gotta say, but did hit the roof of the officers club by the beach one fun day. S**t just happens sometimes...lol
They were about to make a second pass, but obviously the ground safety officer realized the winds were more than 13 knots...
Looks like they cancelled the second stick. Maybe winds were out of limits? One dude ended up in the trees.
Very nice. Thanks for sharing!
Gotta love the Hercs....what a stayer. What a work horse
awesome video!
Local base had LeapFest several times during the past few decades and it always kept us busy. 👍
awesome!!! congratulations..
Nice video !!!
All of this happened so long ago, I'm glad no one was hurt no worse than it was. We in the military do lots of things everyday that could get us killed. As I stated earlier, there should have been someone on the ground checking conditions and reporting it to the aircraft Commander and jump master. I'm sure by now the investigation is over and everybody has moved on except us who keeps watching this video. Thank all you who still does this in the name of freedom . I was a crewmenber on a EC-130E. That tells you how long ago that was. It stinks a little when you see a aircraft that you flew on is in a museum. I retired 1991 during Desert Storm.
Ouch!!! The guys landing near the parking lot. Oh that sucks!! I feel for you guys!
Hi Crocodine2012. Well, I interpret your question as to who is the owner to this video, and it is us in TeamM. We produce aviation DVDs and documentary films about military and historical airplanes and flight wings. This video was done by us, but could not have been done without the assistance of the Swedish C-130 crew!. A huge thanks to the Transport Division at the Wing F7 at Såtenäs! /Tille, TeamM
I was a parachutist for the 27th Eng. batallion, 20th Eng. Brigade stationed in Ft. Bragg, N.C., (91A) of course we had Sicily DZ , lots of sand to help with the landings specially on days with heavy wind.... I recall having a hard core ranger trained Sgt. that unless it was like 25 or 30 knots he would give the go ahead and jump ... man ! we always would ask who was in charge of ground control... and when we knew it was him we would just know we were in for it....
This guys look as if they had a rough one, specially the poor trooper that hit those cars... even that crazy SGT. I told you guys about would not have allowed that... As he used to say, ''if we go to war and someone gets hurt while jumping and is a liability, I'll just put one one your forehead and tell your parents you were a good trooper...... but no one is slowing us down''..... he was nuts.... miss that guy, got killed in Kuwait by a big explosion that also killed lots of my friends................
I made 13 landings without any gear bags as a civilian 37 years ago and all but one of them were brutally hard landings. My last landing, I sprained/strained all the muscles, ligaments, tendons in my foot and that put me on crutches and out of jumping and other activities for at least 1 year while it slowly healed. I did have 1 standup landing where I must have had an updraft at the right time. The landings are brutally hard and you are very likely to hurt yourself because of the downward and forward backward sideways motion. You feel like you are a hot air balloon with no direction control.
Nice video , Captain
Well, thank you daijiangang! One tries to do ones best! The appreciation should also be directed to the Swedish C-130 crew for letting us mount a GoPro camera in the cockpit! Many thanks! You can find the video footage on one of our aviation DVDs, at www.teamm.se. Take care! /Tille, TeamM
I couldn't help but notice that a few of the jumpers almost went in to the parking lot and it looked like one was in the tree but thanks for the great video and witch one was Gomer Pyle? thanks from the USA captjack out !
Greetings from german Airborne Infantry, its a Pleasure to see our comrats jumping ...
You're way mor relaxed while jumping procedure than we here in Germany are :-/
I like your kind of handling it
Hope I'll be able to earn your badge next year.
Off topic: what kind of parachute are you using? They seem to me to be WAY MORE innovative and new, than our old T-10 ones, which we're using until WWII. I mean: are you able to steer it?
Best Regards
Junior Officer Hübner
최고 ! 멋있습니다. ^^"
Hi Crododine2012! Well, that is not up to me I'm afraid, as they belong to the gentleman in the video ... :-)) Maybe he does read your comment and will answer himself, you never know! :-) All the best, and thanks for your comment. /Tille, TeamM
Regardless of the negative comments, was good to view. It takes some bottle......I know!
Does anyone know what those mission symbols, on the left side of the fuselage by the door indicate? Of course, it's Swedish military, probably, but it kind of looks like Afghanistan. 30 hops to Kabul, maybe?
They're appeared to be some high winds at the DZ…there also appeared to have a scheduled 2nd drop, the insertion looked like it was canc?…regardless enjoyed the youre post.
Great video. I love all of the comments from these Internet airborne giving us their "expert" advice. The only thing I noticed was the Jumpmaster stays in? That's the fun part!
TheNonya1 The comments aren’t really expert advice,they’re more common sense if anything
Pure meditation 🧘♂️
Pilot looks very young!!
The type of parachute using here reminds me the "BAND OF BROTHERS".
Good Video, please next time try to use rocking sound track.
That was a very hard landing guys. Maybe it might be time to consider a different type of chute. Jus' sayin'.
they're not pussies like you sheldon. jus' sayin'
Do you think you could do better???
I'm retired Air Force and a crewmember on a EC-130E. I've witnessed lots of drops, some of these guys could've gotten killed. I don't claim to know the reasons, I wasn't there but it looks as though the winds had a lot to do with this and it being a airshow. Wanting to get it done for the people. But someone on the ground should have called it off. They were also willingly to do another drop. I am so thankful no one got killed.
I wonder how many got hurt 🤔 some hard, windy,oscillating landings 🥴😫 After checking canopy, I was heading towards the trees, the first words that came out of my mouth were " awe f---!!!"
That parking lot landing kinda reminds me of my first jump, when I was musing if I'm landing in cornfield or will be dragged to the nearby patch of forest. But luckily, made it exactly into ~50m patch of clear land between them :)
Vivi neste compito pot 3 fantásticos anos
Took my 1st C130 ride into Afghanistan 🇦🇫.. had no idea they were that nimble .. great aircraft..
22 years in the military loading and unloading aircraft (my base has a squadron of C-130J-30(stretched 15 ft)). My most memorable times in the C-130 was 1) flying with the South African AF while they were doing NAP of the earth in 2004, 2) JATO take off in the Fat Albert (USMC (Blue Angels)), 3) flying from the east coast of the US to Iraq in 2010(2 days, wouldn’t recommend it).
song? the first one plz
Nice video, The Swedish air force may want to consider a different parachute system, The one they have the jumpers oscillate too much
jbright97 because they dropped their combat equipment before they came to a relatively steady descent. Also, they jumped out looking like starfish. All-in-all a dangerous shit show!
They landed almost on parked cars!
Nice video, just a few different things from when I used to jump with 2 Para in the UK, it seems these guys dropped their kit straight away, this mixed with what looks like strong winds could of caused lots of problems, the landing looked dodgy also but like the others say we don't know the full facts. Thanks
I saw that too - the US Army releases equipment much closer to the ground. this reduces the chances of entanglement and developing a large oscillation like these guys were struggling with
Geez, rough landing
Nice video,
I'm a spanish paratrooper and i was surprised when i saw that they release the equipment very soon, and when they are so close can cause too many problems.
They did jump out of zone? i saw a lot of vehicles out there lol
tal cual !! uno cae encima de un vehículo ! soy paracaidista militar argentino y eso es algo inadmisible !
Pablo Moreyra y el otro que cae en el arbol parece que el viento tuvo que ber con que lo hagan hecho mal.
Why the (annoying) background music??
Such an interesting video, damaged by music.
I'm 13 and willing to learn. I saw a video of a Hercules doing a touch and go on a dirt runway, and it dumped some cargo while its wheels were on the ground. Then she takes back off. What's this called, and why do they use this tactic?
Look up LAPES on google.
This is truth. Nothing but actually. :D Learned that back in Wichita Falls.
i saw some people jumping out of a c130 at the local beach for training
What was the point of showing the cockpit? The back is where it's at.
songs? please.
Porque nadie habla del Hercules que fue derribado en Malvinas el 1 de junio de1982 y de sus 7 tripulantes que quedaron el mar.El Hercules es matricula TC 63 .
this is why sweden stays out of war
yeah right its smörebrot and IKEA BETTER.
u dropped the paras in the car park ?? what a mess
What altitude is that? Looks very low.
If I recall correctly it was about 600 meters
One landed in tree! Lol :3
at least the pilot was able to stick the landing.
Why "Swedish Air Force" and not "Flygvapnet"?
Great done. But why jump 2 was not going on ?
+Edmond de Hart Jump 2 was planned to be executed at the air show, but cancelled. Probably due to the misshap during the first drop. Thanks for posting.
Thanks for your answer
+TilleTeamM That's what I figured when I watched it. Cancelled to keep more guys out of the parking lot. First drop- maybe spotted badly, too windy, off course at drop, guys exited late because of last night's bar tab... whatever!
looks like the pilot was confused just after the touch down he went to the steer wheel before revers then he go's back to revers and steer wheel ...
this aircraft is not C-130e it is a c-130h2. i am a us airforce staff sargent Crew Chief that works on c-130e and h aircraft. you can tell by were the APU openings are on the left side of the aircraft. the e models dont even have APUs they have GTCs
Is the guy in the middle the captain or is it one of the two flying the plane?
+C MONEY The captain is the one to the right in the Picture, the gentleman behind the Controls. The copilot is just under the GoPro camera's field of view (you can se the top of his head). The gentleman sitting to the left in the video frame, between them both, is the Chief of engineering. Hmm, I would be very happy if somebody could give me the correct English technical terms for these professions...
Thanks Nick! Will try to remember that!
Those landings looked rough. Seems like they could put an airbrake in there.
why would u still jump round canopys?
Well, mb that's because they're harder to screw up :)
they are a lot less expensive than square chutes and easier to train on, the us airborne divisions still use them only special forces and the golden knights use square chutes
You can get more people into a smaller area. They are less likely to cause mid-air accidents, tho there was one in this video caused by high winds. They are more reliable.
the paratroopers get hurts, the wind down there was 18-25 knots. where's the dropzone's jump masters???
I thought you Swede's would do better than that! Your DZ was the entire airfield and one guy lands in the parking lot, denting someone's Saab, and another lands in the arboretum…. Winds out of limits?
Hi Jeffrey! Well, the wind conditions were a bit gusty, to say the least. There was of course an investigation afterwards, but I don't know the outcome of it. Two of the jumpers sustained brouses of which one a broken ancle.
nemo227: The jumpers use a low altitude parachute during a jump like this, and the steering capability of such chutes are somewhat limited to say the least. The jumper can of course turn their chutes up towards the wind, thus making an effort to take down the horisontal speed somewhat, but they do not have that much time to do such corrections. It could very well be that they actually didn't correct their parachutes, in opposition to their training. I assume they realised what was about to happen, and did the best they could, with the time, equipment and knowledge at their disposal. It would be extremely interesting, as there have been so many comments on this thread, to hear the outcome of the investigating that followed. I'll se what I can do to shine some light over the incident. I'll be back! /Tille, TeamM
nemo227
I received a short reply from the commander of the C-130 a few days ago, regarding the accident. The report isn't finished yet, but to date it doesn't mention any anomalies or faults being done in the event chain, leading up to the accident. The authors of the report speculate in the air pressure and wind condition's effect on the parachuters, which was to be expected of course. However, the Transport division at Såtenäs, the home base of the C-130 in question, have drawn their own conclusions of the event, and have already adjusted their routines accordingly. From there, I invite you all to draw your own conclusions... I mean, these guys are military. If they can avoid to tell the hole story, then that is what they'll do. But my personal impression of these guys, working at the Transport Division - may it be pilots as well at the technical crew - are that they are extremely professional and focused people.
Looks like heavy winds
Static line out the back is kinda slow and risky. 10 guys could have jumped side door in the time it took 5 to go off the back platform.
Why didn't they do the second jump I wonder?
Wind was out of limits
3:21 guy in the back looks like Jeb Corliss
What is that thing hanging from the paratroopers?
That is the gear they carry , The Rucksacks !!!!!
J Donayel Thanks!!!
wuouuuuuuu
well, I know nothing about planes or parachutes. But I can tell you this - those men landed very badly.
Wow.I think that in 9:23 they hit the ground with high speed.
How can I SE this? Can someone tell me?XD
...?
Underestimate de wind in the landing zone !
Look the trees moving hard
For sûre the stick as dropping out zone and landing midle of the car Park and one inside tree....
titan
First two guys out had their arms wide. WTF?
1 minute.....standby.....wind on the ground is 15 knots.....GO,GO,GO,GO.....WOOOOHOOOOO......man what a rush....uh oh....the trees, the ground...coming up fast ..recheck para position...looks hard....booooosh. lol...fun times
why does he help him push the levers forward before take off?
Popcort32145: I believe it's because it assists the pilot during take-off. I'm not sure about this, but I also believe the throttle lever is spring loaded. During take-off the pilot is occupied with many things, and the help from his colleague in the cockpit will ensure full throttle, which is needed during take-off. Any more comments on this - anybody? /Tille, TeamM
The PNF (pilot not flying) assists the PF (pilot flying) by "guarding the throttles," ie ensuring that none of throttles are pulled back inadvertently should the pilot's seat decide to release and roll back or anything else happens in the cockpit. This is important as after a certain point during the takeoff roll (called S1 in the AF, V1 or V2 civilian) it is more dangerous to keep the plane on the ground than the air, so if the pilot can't keep flying the takeoff (like the seat situation above) the PNF then becomes the PF, takes the controls and continues to get the jet in the air. He's also fine tuning the throttles to ensure the engines are within limits (you can notice the PNF adjusting the #3 or #4 engine right after liftoff). Hope this helps!

because he is a nice person
popcorn32145 When I was flying Herks 45 years ago, my seat released and slid backwards about 2 feet just after takeoff. Our seats had heavy armor on them and were very heavy. When this happened, I let go of the flight controls and throttles and yelled to the CoPilot: YOUR AIRPLANE. Fortunately, he was paying attention and there was no problem.
webcamfann Thank you so much for sharing your insight and knowledge on the operation and handeling of the C-130. Much appreciated! /Tille, TeamM
wow. epic fail. Whatever pathfinder gave the bird that heading needs to be slapped. Also pretty sweet car PLF.
They said in the speaker that they can´t controll the flight path, like modern day parachutes.. Which is even worse.. 😂
Some poor guy now has a dent in his Saab
boy's jump low a hell, 5-600 feet tops
its engines smoke like burning rubber.
Парашютисты приземляются спиной по ветру,- это очень опасно, можно повредить спину или голову. Почему они при снижении не разворачиваются по ветру, чтобы видеть землю и встречать ее ногами? Их что, не учат этому?
Really low for a jump I think. No need for a reserve chute at that height.
9:07 close to the ground and playing leapfrog is not a fun thing to do. One of the guys hit the tarmac, which probably hurt.
Geez i wonder why they don't use more modern parachutes with airbrakes
Bart De Reu It takes a lot more training and practice to land a more maneuverable parachute. If you don't have the practice with a more maneuverable parachute, your injuries can be a lot worse.
SanFranciscoBay true but i only fly square ram-air parachutes and wouldn't touch a round one with a ten foot pole. we still have the option of PLF's and roll-outs on our landings with them
@@sanfranciscobay actually it's because the guys are carrying a lot more weight, Wanna take a guess how much a Paratrooper from the 82nd weighs with a Full Combat load jumping out of a plane?. and yes our Parachutes for Airborne Ops can be used to maneuver but it's limited and given that we jump from 600ft-1200ft there isn't much time to maneuver your chute
@@Dogmeat1950 They could use a extra large ram air parachute similar in size that they make tandem jumps with, so a 250 pound soldier could carry an additional 150 pounds of gear, if they wanted to. They use round parachutes because there is a lot less training involved to safely use them compared to ram air parachutes. And altitude has a factor also. You don't want to make 90-360 degree turns low to the ground with a ram air parachute.
An untrained person landing a round parachute will most likely survive a downwind landing with minimal injuries. An untrained person landing a ram air parachute is likely to seriously injure or kill themselves on a downwind landing because of the high speed of the landing.
@@sanfranciscobay worst jump ever saw !!!!!
There dropping there containers bit early
3 should run home!
If this had been during the period of Major Persson all 3 would have to run home. Plain and simple.
They are all doing way too little to steer away from each other. Only if you pull the relevant parachute strap enough to touch the silk fabric will you be excused.
Additionally #1 lands a classic "banana toilette", jumper #3 a "spread legs" and since the landing of #2 can't be seen he would have been penalized just for "associating" with #1 and #3. So much for drawn out accident investigation. Concerning the wind, shit happens and you live with it.
You (Swiss) guys might wanna just stick to making those cool army knives and reconsider jumping from planes. Just a thought.
Swiss?? :)
Yeah... It's a common mistake in the US, to mix up Switzerland and Sweden. Just so there is nothing to blame on the friendly Swiss air force, in this case the actions seen in the video was done by the Swedish Air Force.
eltonq > Swiss??? 1:40min painted on plane "Swedish Air Force" That's Sweden.
Tille TeamM > Cool video. I enjoyed it, thanks for taking time making/posting.
My bad guys my mistake. Well then stick to not jumping out of planes :-)
eltonq
eltong, that's a GOOD advice to anybody, in any situtations!! :-) Take care! /Tille, TeamM
When the Jump Master swatted his monkey tail away like a swarm of bees, I would have STOPPED my men from proceeding. That last man nearly lost static line controll. No spacing and collisions on a Non combat equipment, tailgait jump. No thank you.
Sir, a proffessional and insightful comment. Thanks for sharing it with the community!
@@TilleTeamM
I hope I didn't sound arrogant. It was an old reflex to make sure my guys were all able to double time off the drop zone.lol
@@jk-76 I certainly did not interpret your comment as being arrogant! I recognise your comment as being both proffessional and insightful. I also value your gentle thoughts on your jump mates. ❤
Jeez the landing doesnt look to great for any of them. Looks like a fair auld wallup to the groend
It's not a cockpit it's a flight deck 😝
Yeah. Hes working too hard on approach.The warning signs were there.And he was fast. But that could be because he was low to give paratroopers time to deploy reserves if mains failed.Still good video.
Im a retired C130 driver with wings for parachuting as well.Used to jump with the old T9 chutes... These Wanker/ Aircrew and Loadies were showing off for the camera is alland stuff the jumpers .. Approach speed was way to high and the pilots were way off track...Why was no streamer dropped on the iinspection run to check for wind ? Oh well No Worries Mates ! If Obama and his NATO buddies keep on pushing Russia ~ B.R.I.C.S. is gonna tear NATO a new Asshole...
To all you Swedish. If this is the Swedish standard for para drops, think twice about joining them. Piss poor drop, a cancellation of the second drop and how many broken bones on the first one? Strong winds, to little separation and poor spotting. Really?
They deployed their rucks right off the ramp! No wonder they had such a hard time with oscillation. What a horrible jump.
эй шведы ,а что стало с теми тремя парашютистами которые упали на автомобили ????
+subaru14101
Привет Subaro . Я думаю, что они работают в их карьере . Ни один из парашютистов не получил некоторые большие повреждения аварии. Спасибо за ваш вопрос . Я надеюсь, что Google Translate дает вам текст , который вы видите ... :-)Hello Subaru. I believe they are continuing in their careers as military personnel. None of the parachute jumpers sustained any serious injuries. Thanks for posting. I hope that Google translate was sufficient for you! :-)
+TilleTeamM спасибо
definitely not a picture perfect jump....could have been a lot worse though,,broken bones are always better than casualties,,
soy paracaidista ecuatoriano y no entiendo por que hacen mal las cosas estos paracaidistas americanos si hay espacio suficiente y no entiendo por que aterrizan juntos casi se accidentan en el aire en pleno vuelo y aterrizan sobre las antenas ---- en mi país siempre en la medida de los posible cuidamos los equipos para que no se destruyan y nos duren un poco mas de tiempo ---- se nota que les falta mas entrenamiento o mas practica para no cometer esos errores
They're Swedish Para's not American: the simple fact is that anytime your operating anywhere...you're at the mercy of the elements and the overall environmental conditions...one moment you have perfect conditions and the missions a go, and the next the winds pick-up and everyones making hard PLF's and scattered throughout the DZ and elsewhere....it's just plain ole common sense when you expose youself to the environment...your at it's mercies...some days you have a picture perfect jump and other days you end up wishing you stayed home...
I'm sorry I do not speak or understand English, to answer this help me a English dictionary
+Patricio Segovia Google Translate. Usa el traductor de Google. No son los Americanos, son Sueco.
comenzando porque no son americanos, son suecos
Desde mi punto de vista es desastrosa la preparación (entrenamiento) del personal, tanto de tripulación como de paracaidistas. El personal de tripulación debe tener perfectamente en claro cual es la intensidad del viento en superficie para corregir el pasaje antes del lanzamiento, si se cambiaron las condiciones debe abortar de inmediato no exponer a los paracaidistas a la situación que se ve en el video poniendo en riesgo sus vidas.
En segundo lugar quisiera saber que hace el auxiliar de cargas cruzándose o reduciéndoles el espacio en la plataforma a los que deben saltar, me parece que pone en riesgo hasta su integridad porque puede ocasionar serios problemas a la hora de la salida de los parac. Por mi experiencia debe contar este servicio con un Jefe de Lanzamiento que es quien apunta y decide a la hora del salto. Luego el desplazamiento en el aire es nefasto por parte de los parac que en ningún momento se ve que enfrenten el viento para caer y aparte desprenden la mochila apenas salen de la aeronave pudiendo provocar con esto enredos entre los que saltan. Se debe utilizar el suelta rápido a poca distancia del suelo. Saltaron cinco, no quiero ni pensar lo que serian 62 saliendo al mismo tiempo, que es la cantidad que en mi país se realizan siendo saltos de combate. De Hércules por supuesto.
What a terrible jump those guys could have been killed,way to windy and landing in trees and on cars,sort it out.
Sometimes wind is unpredictable, but if they decided to jump and it was blowing as hard as it appeared, then the jump was questionable.
