    How to survive falling from an airplane

    Every once in a while we hear a story of someone surviving a fall from an airplane without a parachute. It just boggles my mind that someone can survive a fall from heights in excess of 3000 feet. The story of Lareece Butler is one recent example of a person who survived such a fall.

    So I was wondering about best techniques for surviving enormous falls, and I found this web page on WikiHow.com. As an old Boy Scout I understand the importance of 'being prepared.' This article should be required reading for all people who might fall from an airplane.

    Wow.....she was pushed.

    The rest of us rarely bother to think about our actions." --Solon

      This is my favorite part:

      " With all the adrenaline flowing in response to your flight, you may not even feel injured upon landing. Even if you are not visibly injured, you may have sustained fractures or internal injuries that must be treated immediately. No matter how you’re feeling, get to a hospital as quickly as possible."


      How bad-ass would that be? You pop up from falling out of a plane are you kidding me? I'd make a shirt that says "Parachutes are for PUSSIES" or something.
      "I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch! I'll make his whole brand go under,"

        You might need to read that webpage if the fuselage falls off in mid flight like this one:

        Part of the fuselage of the Alaska Airlines Boeing 737 Max 9 fell off, forcing an emergency landing.


        They just don't make them like they used to.
