They showed on tv one of the planes during the jump. 100 men jumped in 60 seconds. That is impressive.
What really sucks... One of the paratroops got tied up in the equipment and could not do the jump. Paratroopers in combat get a gold star for their jump, which is a very, very big thing in the paratroops. I hope he gets another chance later.
