I guess he elected no gear instead of just the mains. Maybe what the AOM calls for. It looks like the pilot had a harder landing than the plane. Hope he came through the ejection and landing OK.
That's a cool ejection seat blasting him out right there, but it didn't flip or burn anyways.
He had no guarantee that it would stay uptight and stay on the runway at the time he made the decision to eject. SOPs exist for a reason.
Any day you can walk away from something like this, it was a good day!
The way he crumpled, I'm not sure he walked it off.
Didn't nobody sat it didn't hurt. LOL
I've been through egress training in several countries and also decompression chamber training several times in Canada. The courses always include what the instructors usually refer to as the "gallery of horrors" which consists of photos and videos that are intended to grab your attention and make everyone realise the importance of learning the material like your life depends on it -- because it does.
We were always told that it's considered a successful ejection if you escape from the jet and get a good chute, but that even in successful ejections, there can be serious injuries. I've had a few close calls during air-to-air photo missions, but so far, I've made as many landings in aircraft as takeoffs.
