Cool!

Would have been better err? I mean lucky he didn't get sucked into the engine!

:-D

 

:-D :-D They were quite well separated, I don't know how fast they were going but I'm sure the jets were flying quite slow compared to what they can do. Did you notice they sped up before he pulled his 'chute?

 

Awesome way to travel. How about a ground take-off?

 

Here ya go, it's not new thing.:-D I used to LUV this serial!

Yes.

Now I think about it though it is 'really' dangerous,any little cross wind on more importantly if he hit some jet wash or turbulence and he could get slammed into one of the planes.

He does have a parachute though and probably has an altitude operated rip chord in case he gets knocked out.
