    Great jumpin Jehosophat. Looks like they're all pros, though, and can probably write it off.

    I guess they didn't see the episode of Myth Busters where they dragged some cars and a school bus behind a larger jet. The thrust from the jet flipped the car and bus over like they were toys. I don't know how the plane in the video compares to the one they used on the show, but I think they are lucky the whole trailer didn't go for ride.

    It looks as if that flatbed was placed there for the photographers, with steps up to it.
    So it's not unreasonable for them to use it
    Just turned out to be a bad choice as the jet turned right :mad2:

    Paul, when I clicked 'copy link' to post it in another site, it turns out they wanted the best shot they could get of the vice-president's plane and were warned of what could happen but did it anyway.

    >> warned of what could happen but did it anyway.
    Ah that's journalists for you.
    I hope none of their insurance paid out, as I'm sure after a warning like that mine wouldn't :mad2:
