What happens to the parachutes when landing in the ocean? Are they usually left there to pollute the ocean or are they typically pulled out at some point by the jumper?

I’ve been trying to learn how to design logos. This was motivated by the USFWS dropping 76 beavers attached to parachutes over the Idaho wilderness. I decided to give him some smoke jumper flair. I was thinking of making some stickers to send out if anyone is interested.

Do base jumpers carry a reserve parachute or would it be pointless?

I ask because of the video of the guy jumping off a wind turbine. Would there be enough time to recognize a failure, then successfully deploy a reserve or are you just gonna hit the ground if your main chute doesn't work?

The FallschirmjΓ€ger falls from the Ju52 causes the static line to become taut, this then pulls the Deployment (D)-Bag of the container on the back of the jumper. The static line and D-Bag stay with the aircraft. The continuing fall of the JΓ€ger release & inflate the parachute canopy!

I found a digital altimeter used for parachuting. If you can tell me approximately where, the brand and description, it's yours.
