F*ck! I accidentally downvoted this before I even watched it.

Can't count mine as a correction to your accidental downvote therealblankman, I'd have probably voted for this anyway. I accidentally downvoted weather bloopers today too:

"do me a weather!"

The ending was best for me, I'm a vegan who walks or bikes as much as possible and likes cold showers. I still exhale, though.

No matter the specific content, this video is a sign of bad things to come.

Warren Miller narrating doesn't hurt either. So many ski-movie memories...

bnsa: I recently saw a write up of wearable composite wings being developed for military uses. Dan't seem to find a link though. Sorry.

My understanding is that vibraphones have metal bars and xylophones have wooden bars.

Yeah, not the dean. You're right, he's "a tall, thin, bespectacled, nerdy Hubbard look-alike in a suit and tie"

For what it's worth, Hubbard did think it was funny.

I think I've done a fairly decent job of poking around this site but can't seem to find a mechanism to change the title of a video. Once again, I've neglected a word that should go in the title but instead is only a keyword. (see http://www.videosift.com/story.php?id=3203 and http://www.videosift.com/story.php?id=3204 for examples)

If I could, I'd add a beatbox reference to the title.

-UPDATE- I had to log out and log back in for the edit link to come up, but have now done so. Thanks, dag.

"I don't think I posess any skill that anybody else doesn't have."

Seems like all great tests pilots are this humble. Noted pilot Scott Crossfield said something similar:

"The opportunity to be a test pilot...is there for all--and probably within the grasp of most. In my mind, we should divest ourselves of this idea of special people (being) heroes, if you please, because really they do not exist."

More specifically he's Glenn Hubbard, Dean of the Columbia Business School.
