I never understood what compels people to jump out of perfectly good airplanes...this case being the exception of course.

The plane was fine...till one idiot got too close to another!  Not the planes fault it was being operated by a moron!   ;)

Good job, no one killed.  Normally small aircraft (and large) don't have parachutes for the pilot and crew, "hurt" isn't nearly as bad as dead.

The SEALs have a saying, "You have to be alive to feel pain."  The pilot who bailed is feeling "alive" right now.  Been there and done that myself, waking up after abdominal surgery for cancer feeling "very alive."
