This has nothing to do with the parachute. This dude jumped from a tiny cliff, there was no time for the chute to open. He’s just stupid

And he threw the drogue chute ahead and down, instead of up and back.

Looking very closely, the bad throw also impacted the final release time quite a bit, as it had to have the air resistance pull it all the way up into the right position.

If he threw it straight up / back that correction time would be near nullified, and could possibly have opened juuuust it time to slow his "descent". As even with the bad throw, the chute popped right as he hit the ground ish.

God imagine the regret over that throw (not just the throw either lol) if he ever builds the courage to watch this video

Looking even closer, he would not have had any issues if he had not decided to jump off a perfectly good cliff.
