Ejection seat testing without and then with a rocket-assisted launch. The rocket assisted launch provides enough altitude needed for the parachute 🤝

I’m amazed the same guy volunteered after the first try.

We used to say “Aces ll….thrust you can trust.”

They refer to them as zero-zero ejection seats. You will survive at 0' AGL and 0 knots. Forward speed helps the chute open. Check out the camera angle on this!

VA…well give you 10%

An F-16 pilot can only do that twice before he's done

The parachute filling with wind all of a sudden at the 9 second mark has me dying. lol

Martin Baker FTW.

Epic Rocket assist at its finest! Lives will be saved with this technology ! Buds never die !

Whiplash.
