Actually, paratroopers don't say "Geronimo" anymore. They count four seconds (one-one thousand--two-one thousand . . .), by which time the static line should have opened the parachute. If the chute has not deployed, the emergency chute cord is pulled. If that chute fails, s/he hopes that St. Michael (patron saint of the airborne) is handy, since the jump wings on the uniform aren't much good in such a situation.
