A parachute is a device which enables a person to jump from an aircraft and float safely to the ground. It consists of a large piece of thin cloth attached to your body by strings.

If a person parachutes or someone parachutes them somewhere, they jump from an aircraft using a parachute.

To parachute something somewhere means to drop it somewhere by parachute.

If a person parachutes into an organization or if they are parachuted into it, they are brought in suddenly in order to help it.
