Sorry but my program wouldn't/couldn't add film strip to my post. Have
ask 2NO to try to put some place all can go to and see.

Pretty soon we'll see a video of a pig making touch-and-go!

PS: Liked the spring board vid. Very Monty Python-esque

This doesn't belong on RAS because it doesn't relate to soaring. And,
it doesn't belong anywhere else because it is entirely phony.
Achieving 100m of altitude (approximation from the vid) requires an
initial velocity of 44m/s. Estimating the traverse distance as .7m on
the springboard would require a sustained 140G acceleration to get up
to 44m/s. At that acceleration human legs are spaghetti. There is no
way that bent knees could possibly couple that energy into his torso.
