If you have to kill an airplane at least be able to hop out of the wreckage and yell TA DA!

Looks like a good landing to me. He walked away from it and let the plane take the punisment

He looks pretty terrified in that picture.

Well, he didn't run off the runway. So probably.

Figure maybe he was really just taxiing at 60mph and took a wrong turn?

Kirby already crashed upside down in a river in China in 2001 (see my previous comment). Hence crashing upside down in a jungle should be much more routine.
Guys like that make their own luck. I make cookies. I take pride in the fact that we both make things.
