It was done by troy hartman, I think someone in AZ did it as well... he did it for sensless acts (MTV Show) the video is here..

Obviously they do burn that way, you saw the video right ?

I'm not sure why all the sudden this video is getting so popular.. it has been around a looong time. I've seen it talked about 4 different places recently, two of which weren't even skydiving related places.

Actually they had to put absorbent fabric in the cells and stuff it in a bucket full of kerosene on the way to altitude to get it to light with the flare. It was deployed just like a direct bag out of the bucket.

Yes I know, the point I was trying to make is that it was real - not some computer generated stuff...

it still actually burned the way you see it :)
