One summer afternoon in 1917, Royal Flying Corps trainee Graham Donald prepared to try a new maneuver with his Sopwith Camel. He ascended into a vertical loop, intending to flip the plane at the top and fly off in the opposite direction. Unfortunately, when the airplane was fully inverted at 6,000 feet, his safety belt gave way and “suddenly I dived clean through it and fell out of the cockpit.”
“The first 2,000 feet passed very quickly, and terra firma looked damnably ‘firma,’” he recalled later. But as he fell, “I began to hear my faithful little Camel somewhere nearby.” He dropped onto the diving plane and managed to grip its top wing, “and that saved me from slithering straight through the propeller, which was glistening beautifully in the evening sunshine.”
As the ground neared at 140 mph, he reached into the cockpit and pulled back on the control stick. Unfortunately, this sent the plane into an inverted spin. With 2,500 feet left, Donald managed to put his right foot on the stick and push it forward, and he found himself clinging to a plane that was flying upside down. He reached the controls, righted the plane, and climbed into the cockpit with about 800 feet to spare. To prevent further strain on the wings, he cut the engine and glided back to the airfield.
“I made an unusually good landing, but there was no one there to applaud — every man-jack of the squadron had mysteriously disappeared. After a minute or so, heads began to appear all over the place — popping up like bunny rabbits from every hole. Apparently, when I had pressed my foot on the control stick, I’d also pressed both triggers and the entire airfield had been sprinkled with bullets. Very wisely, the ground crew dived as one man for the nearest ditch

Texas court to rule on Veyron crash blamed on pelican
In 2009, the YouTube video below, of a $2 million Bugatti Veyron supercar diving into a lagoon in Texas, went viral.
So did owner Andy House's explanation for the crash: he said he was distracted by a low-flying pelican and swerved off the road.
Thing is, looking at the video, it's hard to make out any pelicans.
Now his insurance company is taking House to court because they think the saltwater dip was intentional, that he did it for the insurance money, reports CarScoop. A jury in a Texas court has been asked to make the call.
House took out an interest-free million-dollar loan from Lloyd Gillespie to buy the 2006 Veyron, then got collector-vehicle insurance from Philadelphia Indemnity Insurance Company [PIIC]. He named Gillespie a loss payee.
The crash, which happened just a few weeks after House signed up on the policy, was deemed intentional, and not an accident, by the PIIC when they conducted their investigation.
They also determined he'd invalidated the policy terms by using the car as an everyday driver, and not a collector vehicle; House had put 1,900 kilometres (1,200 miles) on the Veyron since he had it insured.
Their evidence House purposely put the car in the drink? Testimony from the cameraman who shot the YouTube video, who says he saw no pelican; the lack of skid marks on the road leading to the water's edge; and the fact witnesses say House didn't seem that upset over the loss of the vehicle immediately following the incident.
Furthermore, they think House meant to cause irreparable damage to the engine by leaving it running for 15 minutes while it sat in the water. House says he'd left the car on because he was fending off mosquitoes.
To top it off, PIIC claims they've a confidential informant who tells them House offered to pay him money "to steal the car and burn it, making the disappearance of the vehicle appear to be a theft so that Mr. House could obtain the insurance money." When the informant confronted House post-crash, he was offered hush money to keep quiet.
We're not going to speculate on whether House meant to put the car in the water or not, but we've got to ask: do you see the pelican?

I've been trying to find this billiard cartoon for a while now.
