Kerbal reentry.....solution?

[xxlawman87xx]

So....this is my kerbal realizing his impending doom after a "small" mishap with his EVA return trajectory to the crew hatch. So my question is...has anyone developed a kerbal parachute for just this kind of emergency?

Try to land on your helmet.

The current solution for EVA parachutes is this mod: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/25305

I would also think DeadlyReentry would be a 'solution' to your Kerbal not going poof.

If you have KAS, you could make the radial chutes grab-able (I've never tried but I'm told you can make pretty much anything grab-able), put it on your back and do the obvious.

If you land on solid ground, your kerbal is actually indestructible when doing the jet-pack animation (this doesn't work if he splashes down, though). So make sure that he hits land and mash that "R" button!
