I would say that Leonardo Di Vinci came up with the design, although it wasn't efficient. Faust Vrancic was credited for inventing it. As for the Aeroplane, it dates back to the Wright Brothers.

The first successful parachute jump from a moving plane occurred in what state?
Captain Albert Berry is one of two people credited as the first person to make a successful parachute jump from a powered aeroplane. The other contender is Grant Morton, who is reported to have jumped from a Wright Model B flying over Venice Beach, California sometime late in 1911. On 1 March 1912, Berry jumped from a Benoit pusher biplane from 1,500 feet (457 m) and landed successfully at Jefferson Barracks, Missouri. The pilot was Tony Jannus. The 36 foot (11 m) diameter parachute was contained in a metal canister attached to the underside of the plane - when Berry dropped from the plane his weight pulled the parachute from the canister. Rather than being attached to the parachute by a harness Berry was seated on a trapeze bar. According to Berry he dropped 500 feet (152 m) before the parachute opened.
How did the parachute come about?
There are many theories about how the first parachutes came about. Some say Chinese acrobats used umbrellas as the first parachutes. Another story is that in the late 18th century, the first balloons were invented. They were filled with hot smoke into a canvas balloon and the passenger was suspended in a basket held by a net surrounding the balloon. On one occasion, the balloon accidentally burst and formed a parachute inside the envelope of the net around it. The first person to actually make an intentional parachute jump was Frenchman Garnerin in around 1793. The parachute was designed as an escape for the early aeronauts who flew their balloons. Technology for parachutes only improved when some decided to jump for pleasure at festivals and other public events.
