United States Marine Pilot Lands Plane On A Giant Stool

Captain William Mahoney of the United States Marine Corps was faced with a unique challenge when the front landing gear on his AV-8B (fighter jet), malfunctioned. Instead of a normal aircraft carrier landing, Captain Mahoney had to land with the use of a giant stool!

Check out this video of the event and Cpt. Mahoney's account of the emergency landing:

That is one of the craziest things I have ever seen. Life on an air craft carrier is a dangerous one. How talented is Cpt. Mahoney? I can't believe how much the nose of that plane bounced. Good thing he had good aim.
