  • bad ass pilot

    A young pilot who crashed in a New Zealand mountain range taped a chunk of his scalp back on and trekked for two hours to raise help for his injured student.
    Flight instructor Richard Bateman, 27, is expected to be released from hospital after crashing in the Gammock Range in a Robin R2120 on Sunday afternoon.
    Student pilot Nick Eagleson, 33, was knocked out in the crash but Bateman managed to crawl out of the wreckage with a badly gashed scalp and free his companion.


    new meaning to the term "walk it off" ?

    Or Gorilla Tape...the toughest tape on planet earth.

    Well... they might be calling if he had ripped his scalp of on purpose and taped it to a hole in the wing of his plane to repair it...

    Then, he'd be a real badass.
