When science is flawed, it is really flawed!
“However, the trial was only able to enroll participants on small stationary aircraft on the ground, suggesting cautious extrapolation to high altitude jumps.” / https://t.co/um2Ive8jYA
“although we can confidently recommend that individuals jumping from small stationary aircraft on the ground do not require parachutes, individual judgment should be exercised when applying these findings at higher altitudes.” https://t.co/WfyIP7Kbq1
