Umbrella FAIL

 

1. I use to fly All the time, in my Dreams of course, and they were quite vivid as I remember. It felt so natural but the odd thing was, the minute I touched the ground anytime after taking flight I would not be able to take off again.

2. A hole in the top would damp the oscillations, and relieve the force that tore it apart.  I was glad to see he had a parachute.  Of course, that wasn’t big enough to ride to the ground more than once.

3. yes it would Mr. Evil. It would also drop quite a bit faster.

   we used to cut holes in teh top of the parachutes on our model rockets. They wouldn’t stay up as long, but at least we’d have a chance of recovering them. The ones with the whole parachutes would just float away over the horizon, never to be seen again.
