Question When a Pilot Ejects, ?

This excellent 1 hour prog on UK channel 5 Sunday at 20.00hrs, showed a slo-mo of a mock up/tethered Heli with 5 blades doing their stuff, with the start and run thru procedure of all the blades firing off the rotorhead, just millsec's before the bang seat's did its stuff, I was so mesmerised I missed wether it was a Russian or American, Any one else see it , if so can you tell me who's it was, and can some one say if this every got into production or not.. .Awesome, simply unbeliveable, that head must be some strength,. .Question, would it work on a Robby? <img src="eek.gif" border="0">
