Here's a little video of a Corsair bailout you might want to see. Glad the pilot made it.

Don't know, I didn't. 'Course I signed up with the site a while ago while still on active service.

I was unable to view this video on military.com, but found it on youtube. from what I read in the comments (not the best source of info granted) but the pilot was badly injured when he hit the tail on his way out of the plane, breaking his arm and neck. I do hope he recovered well after that one.
