Just imagine the tail Elvis had access too.......

According to Ann Margeret, she wasn't among 'em...she was still illegal when Viva Las Vegas was made.

Elvis was diddling a 14 year old.....even in TN that was illegal.

Incredible photos from last Friday's accident in Canada ( Lethbridge ). Check out the sequence of the canopy leaving the scene, the pilot in his rocket-powered seat coming out, the parachute opening sequence, and the separated seat falling away. Modern technology at its best. All of this happened in about two seconds from canopy off to the fireball.

Check out all the smoke from the canopy rocket motors.

There he goes ! So that's what the striped handle does !
The left engine has the nozzle fully open, showing that #1 engine was developing no power.

The white thing is the seat-stabilazing drogue chute. Notice the pilot's head pinned to his chest from the severe 'G' forces produced by the solid rocket motors in the ACES II seat. They burn for about 2/10ths of a second . .
enough time to propel him at least 60 feet clear of the aircraft. Hellova ride.

One millesecond from eternity for a beautiful FA-18.
Check out the now-unoccupied ejection seat following the aircraft to glory.

The moment-of-impact photo shows flame shooting out of the left engine . . its 'last gasp'.
There goes the seat above the fireball.
The pilot will be downing his first of several shots within the hour, soon as his hands stop shaking.

And the pilot lived happily ever after . . .

Argh the pictures didnt load

Like that would have stopped Elvis from tappin' dat ass.

Is that Istanbul or Constantinople?

That's nobody's business but the Turks.

What if you date a girl from Constantinople?

She'll be waiting in Istanbul

then she must be 12 or older or you have to give her father 12 goats or 6 lambs...

But Turkish women are very amazing IMO...all these are Turks (don't get them mad...)

Except that it happened almost three years ago.
Pilot had three crushed vertebra, but got back to work.
