The U.S. Navy's elite Leap Frogs parachute team conducted a high-profile rehearsal at M&T Bank Stadium ahead of the 126th Army-Navy football game in Baltimore, Maryland, on December 13, 2025. The jumps, part of the pre-kickoff spectacle, showcased the precision and skill of the team, which has performed demonstrations since its founding in 1974.

Video footage captured from helmet cameras shows the jumpers exiting aircraft at 13,500 feet, freefalling over the Baltimore skyline, and deploying "NAVY"-branded canopies before landing perfectly on the 50-yard line. The rehearsal underscores the team’s rigorous preparation for live performances and ceremonial events.

This year’s Army-Navy game, held in Baltimore for the first time since 2000, pits the No. 24 Navy Midshipmen against the Army Black Knights. Attendance is expected to reach 40,000, including President Donald J. Trump, reflecting the long-standing tradition of honoring military service while celebrating one of college football’s most historic rivalries.

The Leap Frogs’ demonstration continues a legacy of combining athletic spectacle with military precision, a hallmark of the annual Army-Navy game, which has been a symbol of inter-service unity since the first matchup in 1890. Fans and officials alike praised the rehearsal for its flawless execution and dramatic visual impact over the stadium and surrounding harbor.
