1872

RIPCORD INTESTINE

I obtained my first parachute 34 years ago in a trade
For my over/under .22/20 gauge

Can I get a video or photograph of my jump?
Does my first jump count towards becoming certified?
What happens if I forget to pull my ripcord?
What were his first words as he crawled from his cockpit?

You may have only one chance to pull it
And you want to make sure you get it the first time.

I was conscious, because I put my ripcord down my suit
To save it and I sat up in the dock.

I stowed the ripcord in my teeth.
I reached up and grabbed my rear
And let go of my ripcord, which is a real no-no
