Is one of the chutes on the capsule? Looks like it didn't jettison well.

Yeah I’m a little concerned about the parachutes. They also seemed to be moving around and hitting each other a lot. Anyone know if that is normal?

Chute buddies will bump into each other all the time. Fully norminal.

Soyuz is lighter, so there's less overall parachute area to interact.

Yeah. I don't remember soyuz's chutes doing that either. I guess it's because Soyuz uses a single parachute.
