Sweet, I was just telling somebody about that incident last week.
I give you possibly the funniest video on the Internet (you need sound):
Yer it was really amazing how high ,,,,,,, infact it rated on of the most increabiable survival stories ever especially with all the suporting GPS data recorded.
But is it as good as MAGOOKIE going walk about and surviving in the desert.
The desert miracle is amazing, 40 days without food & 12 days no water!... I'm not entirely convinced about Awa's... I think they used the variometer for altitude, and the GPS for the track.
~9000m for 45 minutes, without gear and just a little frost bite on the cheek & ear???
Even 10mins @ 7km with wind chill would be a miracle.
With cloud suck (or even lip sucking) the vario can be quite inaccurate... amazing in any case.
.
Imagine if the poor bugger had got kicked in the head and died. He would feel a right dick sitting in the waiting room to get into heaven, all covered in cow sh.i.t with a big hoof print between his eyes.
I went flying in India and the Russians had a habit of flinging themselves off into the mountains with no real though of how they were going to get back.
sorry....... fk cow gluider made me laugh .............
i always throught the first thing was to clear the runway
its getting better every time with the volume up
I remeber the story breaking t the time and wondered if they embelished with the details.
Chanced accross the story on Aunty and was (despite a pretty stodgy production) riveted. So many get out of jail passes for that lass it is incredible.
The unlucky Chinese bloke that copped the lightning strike a short distance away was sh!t outta luck tho.
Caught the Bagooki story also. Pretty enthrawling too.
Boy did he get a bum rap from the press.. not to mention the CH 9 tossers effectively pizzing off with him for an exclusive re-enactment (instead of directing him straight to medical help).
Some good teev that doesn't involve cooking out there after all.
. I'll might have to show them how to download youtube videos heh

Could hardly breath from laughing. Being a ex rural, that was just huge
I liked the last few seconds when the cow on the left was changing direction, looking towards that big green monster thing that landed on its mates
Oh and I played about six times.
