Something Very Interesting Just Happened

[zxczxczbfg]

You know how phys-warp sometimes makes parachutes pop off? Well, I was 'chuting down from LKO in a Mk-1 command pod with a Mk-16 parachute on top, at 4x warp. The parachute popped off because forgot I left phys-warp on, and in a rare moment of quick thinking I EVA'd poor Jeb.

HE SURVIVED.

Granted, he was half-buried on his side in the ground, but if anyone still thinks Jeb doesn't deserve his BadS flag, this will put an end to all arguments over it.

It helps if he lands on his head. It is apparently the most durable and rubberized portion of a kerbal.

Ha! This reminds me of a time I sent my Kerbals on a Duna mission, messed up the trajectory and wound up on a one-way trajectory to Eve. I deployed the chutes too soon and the craft blew up so I jettisoned the pilot in a hail mary pass. He hit the ground and skidded for a couple of kilometers but he made it!

And then he stayed there until the next update erased him from the Universe.
