On a more serious note, did the seat test 'pilots' who tried out new designs for the first time qualify too? I guess these days they use a crash-test dummy, but there's plenty of YouTube of brave souls being ejected out of cockpits on rocket sleds, or out of test aircraft (MB's preferred testing method?).
The one that springs to mind is Bernard Lynch, he did about 31 ejections when testing the seats in the early days and was the first.
