It was the hat that killed him. Got caught in the slipstream and broke his neck.

Those hats have always impressed me as outrageous.

With the lift that hat produces, you don’t need a parachute.

What is it with Russians and their grotesque military hats?

Maybe he wasn’t getting enough lift from the front edge of that hat.

Okay, if I had to wear that silly clown hat I’d want to die, too.

Always wondered if the Russians felt a bit silly wearing this ridiculous covers.
