You would be hard pushed to produce a photograph more dramatic than this - a pilot ejecting from a Lightning a few milliseconds before its final meeting with the earth.
But what makes it an absolute classic is the tractor, with the driver obviously looking aghast at the unfolding event. If he had been looking over his left shoulder, which would seem to be reasonable, it would probably have been less dramatic. Why does the tractor and driver make all the difference?
I reckon it was a set-up job.
