Awesome stuff, to be sure, especially that backward flip move they tend to do. But if you hold your palms vertically at about a foot apart, then surround the airspace about 3 inches above the fly, all you need to do is clap, and around 50% of the time you'll get it.
I think I might have learned this trick from Neatorama.
It's a good thing my seat heaters haven't worked since I bought the Jeep. Then again, I did have that vasectomy, so...er, nevermind. Hope your move went well, but heard it didn't!
As a chronic jaywalker, I say I would definitely go ahead and do it, while giving the big double thumbs up to the camera. I used to work on an aircraft carrier; your simple roads amuse me.
Thanks, catskill, for being braver than I to point out that these things are useless weight on any flight. Like Carlin says, "Is it me, or does 'water landing' sound suspiciously close to CRASHING INTO THE OCEAN?"
I looked around. The only times life vests were deployed in the last 20 years or so were twice that mattered. One instance was a non water landing, in 1989, and the other was a missing aircraft in 2000.
Seriously, if a Boeing or a MD crashes into the ocean, nobody is going to need a floatation device/aka pillow of beer farts!
When I first saw this, I laughed at what Another Jake is saying. I even thought that maybe 70% of the 349 people they asked in Africa were missionaries.

Makes sense to me.
"I'm not that retarded!"
