Parachuting, also known as skydiving, is where a person jumps from enough height so that he can deploy a fabric parachute and land safely. The history of parachuting appears to start with Andre-Jacques Garnerin who made successful parachute jumps from a hot-air balloon in 1797. The military... developed parachuting technology first as a way to save aircrews from emergencies aboard balloons and aircraft in flight, later as a way of... delivering soldiers to the battlefield. Early competitions date back to the 1930s, and it became an international sport in 1951.
