Here's something everyone should watch.
I mean, everyone will jump out of an airplane eventually, right?

awesome! I feel totally prepared to sky dive now 

I once heard a story. According to the tale it was, I think WWII, and it was, I think Russia, that sent paratroopers out to jump with no parachutes at all. They apparently had a parachute shortage, and a pressing need to jump into danger anyhow, so out they went.

They told them to "jump into snowbanks", which the paratroopers dutifully did, for the Motherland.

I'm told that nearly 1/3 of them actually survived it.

Well, that's awesome and all, but how many were actually able to run into battle afterward?
