Once, sort of.
Air Force sea survival training. A parachute used as a parasail, yanked into the air from a Higgins used as a launch pad. Up to 600 to 800 feet until told to hit the quick release. From there it was like a normal post ejection descent into the ocean. Then a couple of hours in a leaky one man raft, clutching the shark repellent :)
As a military pilot dropped thousands of sky divers, airbourne, 87th, 101st, Army Golden Knights a few times, a few hi-low special forces. Also spent time on drop zone s as safety officer.
