About Parachute Refikî Dîwarî

Parachute refikeke dîwarî ye ku ji metala pel hatiye çêkirin. Dema beşek tê bikaranîn, texteya wê beşê dadikeve xwarê û li cihê xwe daliqandî dimîne. Texteya daliqandî çakêtekê, kovarekê an tiştên wekî wan digire û rê li ber ketina wan digire. Rûyê wê xêzên rengîn hene ku bi valahiyên zirav ji hev veqetiyane, ji ber vê yekê refik dirûvê grafîkî yê paraşûteke nûjen tîne bîra mirov û wekî hunera dîwarî jî dikare bê xwendin. Pîvanên Parachute 790 mm firehî, 30 mm kûrahî û 220 mm bilindahî ne. Nav ramanên parastin û ketinê bi hev re digihîne.

Inspiration: When listening to Coldplay's first album, it suddenly occurred to me to look up the word "Parachute."

It seems that the name "parachute" comes combining the Italian "parare" (to protect) with the French "chute" (to fall).

I thought that was a rather fine name.
I tried to think of devices that protect against falling.
