DFWAJG 4 #5 March 15, 2008 Ouch! Reminds me of when Sebastian hit the Saturn at the Ranch. Who was it that said, "If you're going to be stupid, you've got to be tough?" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shermanator 4 #8 March 15, 2008 wow, that looks like it coulda hurt.

I would've had more of a "WTF were you doing?" Line of questioning, Than I would have had to go and talk to the blimp owners. They were probably pissed that the guy hit it but relieved that nothing happened. Good shooting. Who the hell ever thought you'd get a shot of someone flying directly into the biggest object on the field? Though, with as slow and as soft as the guy fell I would have stayed put too(Kept the tape rolling). If he didnt get up immediately I would run over to him. The camera guy looked to be about 30-50 ft away. That won't take long to get there. But his canopy didn't deflate it just bounces off a bouncey object. EDIT: I love that at tthe end of the clip the one person with canopy starts runnign to the blimp and you see some ground walker with a beer.And BTW... I agree with JP.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gato 0 #11 March 15, 2008 The clearest example of target fixation possible. Thank God there wasn't a tree in the LZ, or he might have hit that instead.T.I.N.S. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
