The odds of a parachute not opening properly can vary depending on factors such as equipment, training, and environmental conditions. Overall, modern parachutes have redundant safety features to minimize this risk, with failure rates estimated to be very low, around 1 in 1000 jumps. It's important to always follow proper procedures and maintenance protocols to ensure safe operation.
