Considering I learned the phrase from a Drill Sargent that wore jump wings with a star over the canopy, at Ft. Jackson SC. in the late 70's,
I will take his version of it over that of a Georgia boy............ And a transplant Georgia boy at that.........

fourth point of contact

While landing under a parachute canopy, the jumper's feet strike the ground first and, immediately, he throws himself sideways to distribute the landing shock sequentially along five points of body contact with the ground:
1) the balls of the feet
2) the side of the calf
3) the side of the thigh
4) the side of the hip, or buttocks
5) the side of the back (latissimus dorsi muscle)

You will now stand corrected.
