If you learn to land properly and have good knees then there is no issue.

Right here. Listen to this person because the essence of their comment is going to keep those knees in good shape.^^
I'm OP in 15 years and my knees were fucked from running track. Last spring I landed wrong when jumping down to launch a vintage aluminum 12' boat, a jump I made plenty of times before. I tore both menisci and didn't even catch anything other than drama after I got that boat launched. It was such a bullshit.
But I learned in PT how to strengthen my knees and use them properly. I was able to avoid surgery and 99.9% of the time there are absolutely no issues.
So, yeah, strengthen your knees and use them correctly so they last as long as possible within your control.
