“Homemade” is fine. “Parachute” is wonderful. “Homemade parachute” is a combination that just screams “this will not end well.” And… behold:

Teenager dies after homemade parachute fails to open during stunt cheered on by mum

A Ukrainian teenager decided it would be a hoot to jump off the top of an apartment building with a “homemade parachute.” Two problems: firstly, the chute didn’t open; secondly, the apartment building was lethally tall, but too short for a parachute, even a proper one, to open adequately. 140 feet ain’t gonna cut it.

Something that probably could have been learned with a few minute online, studying something other than modern woke poetry.

Makiivka is in an area of eastern Ukraine controlled by pro-Russian forces.

Locals know the scene of the tragedy as “doomed tall building” because of other deaths.

“This is the third teenager within the last year,” said one local on a social network.
