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.

I was a Leg, and even I know proper PLF...

Speaking of which, I have an airborne joke for you guys (sorry to derail, but it's great!):
A young man just graduated jump school at Fort Benning when his father came up to his son and asked how it was.
"It was good, but I had a bit of anxiety to jump at first."
"Really what happened?"
"Well, our first jump I was the first one in our stick to jump... I was so scared but the jump master whispered some words of encouragement to me."
"Really?" His dad replied. "What did he say?"
"Well, dad, he grabbed my shoulder strap, pulled me in close, and said 'if you don't jump out of this plane I'm going to fuck you in the ass.'"
"Wow, so did you jump?"
"A little at first."
