That would be brutal...feet and knees together and a horse strapped across your body. What a landing...
The Vickers drop bag was on a long line, so once chute opened, the drop bag was released from the chest and it dropped down and hung on the long line under you, with you just hoping that you'd not land on top of the bloody thing......

Yes, that's what's normal today at least...the lowering rope.

Not land on it or have it snag up on an obstacle so you get hammered into the ground while it stay's anchored.
