make shift EVA parachutes

[roebuck]

sorry if this has been posted before but i dont think it has

So ive made EVA parachutes with vanilla parts you will need 3 part to make them first the TT-38k radial decoupler the telus-LV bay mobile enchancer and the mk16 parachute.

this so whats bad about this parachut it can only be "started" in a 0G placem and you will have to jump on it after its detached or often the kerbal will be lanched away from the eva parachute, so it wont work on space planes unless with abit of luck you can time it right and get the kerbal on the ladder.

So theres nothing more to say i have tryed it 10 times it has worked all times its just that you have to manuly keep the kerbal on the ladder else its an easy thing! now jeb can sky dive from space and surive with out even hurting his sunglasses

anyways hope you will have fun with this

also sorry for the bad english it isent my first langunge so...

Neat! Could we see some pictures?

Somebody did something similar before: an EVA re-entry vehicle made of a winglet, a ladder and a parachute. It worked rather well.

Pretty sure this has been discovered before, but it's good to see new players discovering this principle! By the way, jump on the chute under 100km so you don't get thrown off.

I performed a skydive from 500km.
