Parabomb

Para-bombs are Bob-ombs with parachutes. They descend slowly from the sky, and once they land, they act like normal Bob-ombs. They are just like Paragoombas or Koopa Paratroopas, except in most versions where they appear, they don't have any wings, and they don't appear in a lot of Mario games.
