He ejected barely one second after the jet spun and the flames were up against the canopy... which is about .9 seconds longer than I'd have stayed in there lol.

I was amazed at how long it took him to make the decision to eject as well. Of course it goes without saying, I am glad he was reported to be ok.

Glad he's OK, but man, my back hurts just watching that initial hit. Man I'll bet he spent some time on recouperating from that.
