Holy Crap! I hope he was not seriously injuried. I did come somewhat close to doing the same thing when I first started flying. Looking back now, I think it was a blessing in disguise in my case since that is now burrowed in my brain anytime I leave the ground. :eek:

I think I saw this slide show last year. There is no date on the pictures or the web page.

But, even though it may be old pictures, there is a lesson to be learned for everybody here. Watch out for those wires!
