The thing with that video is that guy knows little or nothing about sport skydiving. He thinks things are careless because of the very very systematized way he was taught, which isn't how it works in the sport itself.

I don't know about your grandfather but I've never seen a perfectly good airplane myself. And when it comes to plane crash fatalities they usually involve hitting the ground so I'm good with not being around for that part!

By an insane margin, the two most dangerous parts of any flight are takeoff and landing. By skydiving, you're cutting risks in half by removing one of those dangerous parts
