The Parachute in action.

Parachutes are tools featured in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, with the purpose of breaking Ezio Auditore da Firenze's fall from a height. Aside from using it to slow his fall, Ezio can use the parachute to maneuver through the air, and land on horses. It can also be used to perform air assassinations on people. The parachute is square-shaped, and bears a closer resemblance to modern-day paragliders than parachutes, both in its appearance and maneuverability. The parachute is another invention of Leonardo da Vinci.

Trivia

• In real life Adrian Nicholas, a British skydiver, took the design of Leonardo da Vinci's pyramidal parachute and tested it in 2000. Suprisingly, it was successful.
