Result of the investgations: The engine flamed out due to a rabbit strike. The pilot, who ejected successfully, stated that he didnt any very low level flying at all.
Huh. That's hilarious. I mean, he's defending himself that 'that specific day' he didn't do low level. Now that's what I call indirect bragging. Good on him having survived it.
He should be happy he didn't get the rabbit to the canopy. Or the bird of prey that allegedly dropped it.
the guy on picture obviously got the snake 'by the balls' and it couldn't bite back. Well, I know I wouldn't do it. I had 'close encounter' with one highly poisonous snake when I was a kid and carrying my friend on my back (thus the only pair of legs for bite were mine). I'd play with constrictors, though.
