After I posted the link below, I found his story so interesting, I just had to look it up. This site, is the true story of Lt. Keith Gallagher, and how he survived a partial ejection from an A-6 aircraft, over the Indian ocean, on July 9, 1991. This story is just simply amazing! Can you imagine the forces that were pushing against his body!! I think it is a miracle that this man is alive today! An interesting, exciting read, with images.

Keith would recover from this accident, return to flight status, and complete his service in the Navy. Keith now works in the telecommunications industry and lives in Atlanta with his wife Michelle and their two children."
