Parachuting is a method of transiting from a high point to Earth
with the aid of gravity, involving the control of speed during the descent with
the use of a parachute or parachutes. It may involve more or less free-falling
(the skydiving segment) which is a period when the parachute has not yet been
deployed and the body gradually accelerates to terminal
velocity.
