Two observations he

1. He did better than that F-16 pilot that splatted his jet on the
ground


The difference wasn't pilot skill, it was how fast he was coming down.
Probably a math error, probably didn't correctly add field elevation to
his top altitude.

2. Whaddya think would happen if is insurance agent saw that clip?


Probably couldn't get insurance.
