Coolest Book You've Never Heard Of
Haven't read it myself because it is so hard to find. Basically this guy jumped out of a crashing plane at 44,000 ft right into a thunderstorm, which wouldn't be so bad except that his chute auto-deployed at around 20,000 ft, hilarity ensued. What is most interesting is that his experience in the storm provided meteorologists with a lot of insight into how thunderstorms operate.
