There are so many people in this world that it's only natural some of them be bad. This could range from someone who is relatively harmless, to mass murderers, to people that just want to see everyone else in peril. On the opposite end, there are people who want to protect others and are so good in their hearts that they're willing to sacrifice their own lives in order to keep the rest of us safe. It's no surprise that being a soldier carries a great deal of risks. To add to that, there are so many tasks, not to mention the rigorous training, that each soldier must fulfill, making it that much more demanding of a thing to do. Despite the risks and hardships, these men and women are still willing to put their lives on the line for their country and the people within it.
Within the army, there are many separate divisions and different kinds of soldiers. The paramilitary refers to soldiers that drop from airplanes and parachute down, giving them the title of paratrooper. In this particular video, a plane is crammed full of soldiers and flown into the sky. When they reach their destination at the Sicily Drop Zone in Fort Bragg, North Carolina, they line up at the side doors of the plane. One by one, they perform what's known as a static line jump. The sight that their deployment creates is absolutely amazing and is truly a sight to behold. The work that these soldiers do for the rest of us is nothing to scoff at. One thing is for sure — they're not afraid of heights.
