That's freaking nuts! I did a few aerial refuelings when I was in the Navy, and the ride got pretty rough, I can't imagine the turbulence that happen around something that big

Glad they didn't get sucked into the big jets!

Remember the twilight zone episode when the guy looks out the window and sees the gremlin?
Now we know how he got there!! Laughing Laughing

Wonder how those guys land?

With a thud?

Parachutes I believe.

Pretty amazing footage - I was sort of suspecting one of them to reach out just enough to touch a part of the plane.

You'd think that wake turbulence would be insane......there is nothing not nuts about that whole deal......

Imagine what the air drag would be like after 5 minutes of doing that. Pretty cool!

Watch how much jostling they have on their arms and legs. I'm guessing you'd either have to be in insanely good shape, or you'd be really sore after one of those flights.

No way would I ever want to be that close to a plane in one of those get-ups.

At 1:23, when the pilot is looking out the window (supposedly at the jet pack folks) you can see the jet bridge out the cockpit window. Laughing

Must of missed that in the editing room.
