I was having trouble deciding, but now that I see that video I think I'll drop by the dealer this weekend.

Out of curiosity, is there a correct technique for releasing your harness while upside down?

Well, I put one hand overhead, on the ground, to try to break the drop, then push the button... With an n of 1, this worked for me.

My first experience with this was with four friends who were flying in a newly rebuilt, antique Cessna 195; they got blown off the runway in this tail dragger in a crosswind. The grass next to the runway was muddy from a lot of rain, and when the gear caught, it went over on its nose then onto its back. The only person hurt (slightly) was a 15 yo kid who immediately popped the buckle and dropped 6 or 8 inches onto his head.

This event came immediately to mind when I found myself looking at asphalt through the windshield, up close.

That Geiger GTS ZR1 (for anyone wondering what that was) is exactly what the ZR1 should have looked like. God it's pretty.

That honestly defies rational description.

There must be a shitload of drugs or alcohol involved becuase I just do not see how anyone could do that.

Imagine the passengers in the car tho. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

Probably. The car being dragged along isn't leaving a massive trail of sparks so I don't think it's real.

But if you watch right near the end of the video you can actually see sparks and other things coming off the car right by the cab of the truck.

It's good to see the police were just standing there looking at it instead of blocking the road with their car before the curve. At least have a sign out or something.
