Is the following sentence grammatically correct He's gone down and he's not put his hands out to break his fall?

The only thing wrong with this sentence is that both parts of the sentence are in present perfect. Rewriting the sentence without contractions: "He has gone down, and he has not put his hands out to break his fall". One wouldn't say this. One would say, "He has gone down, and he did not put his hands out to break his fall"; or "He went down, and he did not put his hands out to break his fall".
