Reply to comment by Vagabond_Grey in Russia may need to send a rescue mission to the International Space Station for 3 astronauts after a leak in their Soyuz capsule by A_Lazko

Spacecraft like soyuz are not designed or built for you to be able to jump out of them. Cosmonauts are also typically fairly weak after extended stays in microgravity so won't be doing stunts on reentry. There are also no parachutes aboard the ISS.

Yes I know there are no parachutes on the ISS. My initial idea was to have the astronauts wait for the next resupply with them along with any required equipment. This is assuming the next resupply isn't too far off away before any permanent health damage sets in.
