Yes, these are technically speaking, what I would call ‘badass.’

Not sure which is my favorite - the Italians, the fast roping insertion, or the explosive rocket discharge.

Explosive Rocket Discharge (where's Norm when you need him ?) are on tiny magnets. The supports are steel piano wire so we can just stick them on to any chopper that is firing.
Thanks for all the nice comments.
I feel I my insanity has finally peaked with the chaps on the rope. Call Social Services and have me sectioned please. Seriously. I need help.

A pleasure to see such creativity, and many thanks to my phone for triplicating my compliments. To go one step beyond, the Marlow FRIES system might be what gets you sectioned. And it's actually a fun ride in real life:
