That's another thing that anyone with anyone flying experience immediately pointed out as fishy.
The skydiving equipment he wears is very bulky but steerable and allows for a safe landing. There also is a backup.
Actual emergency parachutes (e.g. as used by glider pilots) are much thinner, cannot be steered and only guarantee "survival" (expect a broken leg)
