Eeep, is that a corsair it's falling off of?

I don't know about anyone else but I would'nt have kept filming the tumbling bomb, I'd have jumped off the ship several seconds earlier.

The guys that film on those old carriers are located on a cat walk that would put them at just about shoulder hieght for most people (5 feet below the flight deck level I believe to be correct). He may not of even known he was filming the bomb bouncing on the deck untill it went boom. The zoom effect is probably some photo shop. Just my 2 cents worth. I dont DW getting some more ammo to call me Jr. again  :lol

   I have a friend that lives here. His name is Jim Hardy and he was a combat photografer(sp)with the Navy in WW2 and he doubled as a radio operator and he still has his short wave trasmitter at his home and uses it almost every day with contacts all over the world. He is also old like me.
