OT: Sometimes I run into cool stuff.

If you jump out of a plane at 30,000 ft without a chute ... this is

I wonder what kind of camera got tossed out? And that whining sound in
the last 15 seconds, I wonder if I could use that as an audible
altimeter when I pull low?

What was that screaming sound at the end? Was that when the guy realized
his 'chute hadn't opened?

pretty cool stuff.
