I remember the counter-point slightly better now. It was that when you're at terminal velocity you're not actually accelerating and the force imparted by the parachute being expelled from your pack is sufficient to cause you to accelerate upwards very briefly.

I'm perfectly aware of the whole camera angle thing, I mentioned it in my initial post. My question goes slightly beyond that sort of mindless drooling spastication.

Hopefully.
