Jump Around

A friend of mine was teaching ejection training at a local air museum in the late 90's. He made some jumps using the exact equipment he was training others to use. Shooting was a challenge mainly because of his back-to-earth body position and the 50-pound survival kit he was wearing.

Three years later we made a few more jumps in preparation for some photos for Air & Space Smithsonian magazine. The photos were printed in the January 2000 editing.

This is various video taken from all of the jumps I was able to shoot.
