I found two interesting photos from an Nieuport accident in '06 in Vajnory, Slovakia. Pilot survived and he is still an acrobatic professional now, so this story had a true happy end. Anyway, lets look at two real photos:

Ouch, glad to hear the pilot walked away
Strewth!!!!
Lucky chap to survive that!
I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!
That's one lucky bloke.
Run for your life - there are stupid people everywhere!
All this fuss about the wings and the fn tail falls off ! Shhiiiiii
Looks like he hit something, that or a truly catastrophic failure. Thank goodness he survived.
"He is wise who watches"
Yeow! Amazing he lived. Any idea on how/why the tail shredded?
Wow, what did he hit or what hit him.
I'm glad he's ok.
HOLY S#*T!! What a LUCKY pilot to live through that one! Excellent pics, thank you for posting those Daniel.
It is amazing that the pilot survived but I am glad that he did.
Structural failure with a happy ending for once.
I would like to get hold of a copy of that AAR. (Air accident report.)

Ye Gods! How did he survive that one? Reckon he used up all 9 lives.
Must have been the pilot in my recent AAR
OMG!!!!!!! how did he even survive?!?!??! chalk up another fantastic wreck rider story.
According to my information it was crash of two ULL retro WWI aircrafts. The other one landed safely, but Niuport pilot was wounded. But as I said - he is still flying acrobatic shows, so definitely happy end
Unbelievable. Lucky Pilot skill looks like that.

Plane can be fixed and good to hear that the pilot is ok.
Where did you find the photos? I can't find a single news item relating to this.
