The giveaway for me is the camera mounted to his wrist. Why would you have that on the wrist, it makes no sense if the flight had gone "as planned".



I guess the question to what is, is this featured in other videos of his? If not, very bad look.


Thanks to Ridge Wallet being the sponsor.

Don't forget that.

N29508 if anyone is interested.

NTSB investigation number - WPR22LA049


Yeah, and does he wear a full, regular skydiving rig (not an emergency backup rig) while flying airplanes in his other videos?

I have not watched them, but commenters in the original article have said that he does not wear skydiving rigs while flying other airplanes. (I haven't watched his other videos and can't personally confirm or deny)


not even mounted on the wrist. If you watch the video he switches hands, so its on a selfie stick.

Dude bailed out in an 'emergency' but remembered to grab his selfie stick and press record.
