Pardo's Push: McDonnell F4 Phantom

Pretty good trick, and pretty nuts, but it worked. But then you've got to bail out, and things got a little rough then.
Ejection seats are nasty. They get you out of the airplane, but acceleration from the rockets that get you out is ferocious and pilots often suffer back injuries. I guess that's better than being dead, but geez, you'd think all our science and technology we could do a better job.
