That's a good one, SSG John M.. I may have closed my eyes a time or two, especially early in my airborne career. I thought those counted as night jumps.

Actually, I was airborne for about three years, and I had only one night jump. I had dropped my ruck, and I was floating peacefully down (best part of the jump, the float), when I heard a slight thump or bump. I didn't think too much of that noise until I piled into the ground a second or two later! Then I realized that little bump I heard was my ruck hitting the DZ. That was a good lesson learned.

There are many who close their eyes during a jump.

Not sure I have known some one to wet their pants though.
