High-altitude masters from the Army Special Warfare Command gathered in one place.

These techniques are already familiar, but they repeat training on the ground several times before falling.

You might be nervous because it's a competition, but the expressions of the Special Forces members in the helicopter are full of confidence.

Members of the special forces who hurl themselves toward the target point without hesitation and go on a precision descent.

The key is how accurately it lands from about 1,400 meters above.

Every 1cm away from the 2cm diameter center point, one point is deducted, and the landing technique of the special forces is accurate enough to be close to a novelty.

Even in the air, he finished the competition with machine-like movements without any disruption.

In this year's 46th competition, a total of 90 people from the military and the private sector participated in the heated competition.

The special forces emphasized that they will continue to engage with the private sector as well as conduct practical education and training to enhance their ability to carry out special operations in all weather conditions.
