Here is a video of the pilot ejecting from the plane in Riverside, CA. The plane flies on without him. Is that normal?

Depends on the emergency prompting the ejection. This was hydraulic failure. Some emergencies result in catastrophic displays. You punch when it becomes impossible to land or maneuver or before the plane breaks up.

That view of the warehouse with the hole in the ceiling is weird too. Like it just plopped down there. I would think it would have taken out most of the warehouse. And no fire?
