Canon EOS Rebel XT says NO to gravity

Imagine skydiving with your brand new high end camera - attached to your helmet so you don't have to hold it - and while you're flying down towards the ground, you feel your head and notice it's gone. Whoops, no camera! That apparently happened to a friend of Fred Miranda forum member Calin Leucuta, who calculates the velocity at impact was approximately 100 miles per hour. After searching for about 15 to 20 minutes, the camera was found and guess what, it was still working! The Canon Rebel was still functional despite a crack in the body and slight jerkiness within the lens zoom.

I wouldn't buy it off him but still, it's amazing the camera is in one piece. More pictures and video from the camera are on it's way soon!
