I'm surprised his trajectory doesent allow him more height .. obviously he isnt getting any (much) lift, which makes it a lot more scary sticking so close to the ground most of the way, at the speed he's going at

You'd be amazed how much more lift he's get if he wanted to, popping his arms out a tine bit and he'd go up like a balloon.

This is a good'n too....
