    And if it is real, what are they doing? Are those Cameras or some such?

    That must be the advanced scout for the bus load of english speaking uber ninja that occupy a unprepared sleepy Peal Harbor dressed as American Soldiers flicking trowing stars and and whacking nosy shore patrols with nun chaku.

    The physics of the guys on the right prove it a fake, IMHO.

    Let's see, the guy is horizontal from the wind so there's over 100 knots of slip stream. The guy holding him is not trying very hard, he's mugging for the camera. And he's not tied in to the plane in any way I can see. If his legs are tied down it's between the knees and ankles, perfect for getting your legs broken.

    I'm not too concerned about the parachute, that's a nice touch, but that's all.

    I'll need more than a single source on this one.

    Uh guys? I'd like to know what they're doing? Are those special highly secret newfangled super seeing cameras or just a simple sub-atomic "Death-Ray"?

    Actually, I'm comfortable with the camera. Not used like that, but it's not that strange looking for the time.
