The plane was 20 feet or more to the guy's right ... which does nothing to alter the fact that this was cooler than all getout.

There was an air show in KC MO. There was a harrier that took off from an old blacktop section of the airport. When it took off the back blast got in under the cracked old paving and started to tear it up. Big chunks were flying everywhere.

If this was really chicken, as is suggested, the soldier would have been running directly at the harrier. The pilot would have veered first because its difficult to clean hamburger from what is left of the turbines blades after you crash the last aircraft you will ever fly.
