4 people in ww2 survived falling out of shot down planes with no parachute. One with no major injury.

If I'm on a plane that's going down and I have a parachute strapped to my back I'm jumping. Just like if I'm 50 stories up in a elevator and the cable breaks...Right before it slams into the ground I'm jumping up in the air...What the hell do I have to lose doing either?

But they didn't know they could jump out of the plane ?


That was the ritual. More of a sacrifice. They were sent up on a kamikaze flight with just backpacks.

It wasn’t experienced jumpers—it was tandems. Instructors won’t leave their students behind.
