Skydiving emergency parachute malfunctions, had to open the reserve

While doing an exhibition jump in Uruguay, my pilot chute was collapsed due to a shortened kill line.

When I noticed the parachute wasn't opening, I looked over my shoulder, saw the pilot chute dragging.
saw I was close to 2000 feet so went to the reserve handles.

ended up opening at 1900 feet.
During the opening of the reserve, the main parachute came out of the container, still in it's bag.
the pilot chute got tangled on the reserve parachute, but not causing any issues.

Got it untangled and dropped it just because I didn't want another problem in my hands.

Ended up landing on the runway pretty hard.
My feet hurt when they hit the ground, but nothing else.

All good!
