Answer 1

Skydivers who are below the formation can join the group by:

They can spread their bodies to slow their acceleration.

When skydivers spread their arms and legs, they increase their surface area, which increases air resistance (drag) and slows down their descent. This allows them to catch up to a formation above them.
