About Parachute Talantalana Rindrina

Parachute dia talantalana rindrina vita amin'ny takela-by. Rehefa ampiasaina ny fizarana iray, dia midina ny hazo fisaka amin'io fizarana io ka mihantona eo amin'ny toerany. Ny hazo fisaka mihantona dia mitazona akanjo ivelany, gazety na zavatra mitovy amin'izany ary misakana azy ireo tsy hianjera. Ny velarany dia misy tsipika miloko sarahin'ny elanelana manify, ka ny talantalana dia mampahatsiahy ny endrika an-tsary amin'ny parasoly maoderina ary azo raisina ho toy ny zavakanto an-drindrina ihany koa. Ny Parachute dia mirefy 790 mm ny sakany, 30 mm ny halaliny ary 220 mm ny haavony. Ny anarana dia mampitambatra ny hevitry ny fiarovana sy ny fianjerana.

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.
