If you have any skydiving experience or have watched old WWII movies you should be familiar with a PLF. It is a landing technique that involves keeping your feet, ankles, and knees tight together with a slight bend at the knees. This allows your legs to support each other and is substantially stronger than each foot hitting the ground individually. You should use the PLF position any time you are close to the ground. As you are coming in for a landing, you should be prepared to land harder than expected, even though the need for a PLF is rare.
