The Martin-Baker Mk14 ejection seat system, a self-contained rocket-powered survival system that operates in under 2 seconds, successfully saved four crew members during a mid-air collision at an air show by enabling rapid canopy jettison, rocket ignition, seat separation, and parachute deployment despite the aircraft being destroyed.

This Air Show Crash Defied Physics. Four Ejected. Four Survived.Added:
Mid-air collision.
An air show.
Thousands watching.
The vertical stabilizer of the lead jet speared through the belly of the trailing aircraft. Both jets tumbled in a death spiral.
Then, in half a second, the ejection handles were pulled.
Canopies blown.
Rockets ignited.
Four seats fired through a momentary gap as the jets tore apart.
Four parachutes deployed.
Four crew members survived. This was not luck.
This was the Martin Baker MK14 ejection seat.
A self-contained rocket system that works in under 2 seconds.
And the sailors who packed those shoots, whose hands were the last to touch the survival system before the pilot strapped in.
Two jets destroyed.
Four lives saved. Engineering over odds.
