He is a bit of a nutter the first time I saw him he just turned up, pulled out the rig setup and started to run to take off. He obviously didn’t have enough power and decided to back off otherwise he would have ended up in the swampy marsh at the back of Burasai/Jungceylon. When he backed it off the parachute pulled back over his head and he ended up face down on the tarmac with the engine revving its tits off pushing his head harder into the ground. Two guys had to come over and pull the thing off him.

His next take off was a bit more successful but still looked as though he was going to hit the Jungceylon and burasari. He went down toward Holiday inn and then up along the beach front toward the Novotel and then back down around the Paradise hotel which looked a bit hairy. He takes his OH&S seriously as he had a pair of shorts, T shirt, fliflops/thongs, No helmet and a digital camera wrapped around his wrist that looked like it was swinging back and forward very close to the prop.

Even the Thai taxi bikes at the Banzaan market car park thought it was a good show and offered a running commentary throughout the whole thing. Seems he gets out and about every now and again as I saw him a few times. Anyway I will locate some photos and post when I get a chance
