Glider Stall Spin Video on YouTube

According to the Germans it happened on the Magdeburg airfield in
Eastern Germany on May 7th, 2000. You'll find it in Google Earth @
52°04'28"N 11°37'37"E. The airplane was a Jantar Std. 1, registration
D-8420. It was filmed by the local TV station MDF.1 by coincidence,
they were there to tape a report/documentation.

The winch was located further to the left, launch was on the grass
runway 09, after the rope break the pilot continued to fly straight
for a bit to then execute a 180° turn to the right to land on the
parallel paved runway 28 to the right. In the process the pilot pulled
up the nose, used left aileron to reduce the bank and as a result got
into a stall and incipient spin. The (un)lucky pilot apparently walked
away with just some minor cuts.
