Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro decided to make a parachute jump. He stated this during a broadcast on his Facebook page, reports TASS .
“I want to remember the good times of my service in the airborne troops,” admitted the 65-year-old head of state. He invited several ministers with military backgrounds to join “to strengthen team spirit.”
“Teambuilding” will take place on one of the days off in January-February to keep people from working. Bolsonaro has already chosen a plane for the jump – it will be the military transport KC-390 of the Brazilian aircraft manufacturer Embraer.
On November 13, it was reported that the Chief of the Main Staff of the British Army Mark Carlton-Smith was lost right during military exercises. The general jumped out of the Wildcat helicopter with a parachute to raise the morale of the soldiers. However, it turned out that Carlton-Smith was thrown into the wrong area, and the military was unable to establish contact with him upon landing. It is noted that the incident took place in the evening, which complicated the search for the general. Some time later, the chief of staff was found where, according to the military, he was not expected.
