"We're going to assemble the parachute. Which is already assembled. But we're going to mount the parachute to the nose cone. The nose cone has already had the plastic piece that comes with it cut out. So now what we're going to do is we're going to take the parachute like this and what we'll do is get all the lanyards so they're sitting nice and comfortably on your finger. And what you want to do is you want to pass the group of lanyards through the nose cone piece. And it gets kind of tough because it's a rough surface and it's basically fabric, right? Or line. Get through, okay. And now we take your parachute and put it through that like so and cinch it up. And you want to make sure that as much of your lanyard is as tight as possible. And that's how you knot your parachute to your nose cone."
