Jun 27, 2010 14:53 | #5 He's doing the right leg swing on purpose. He kicks forward as he starts to pull on the prop, swinging that right leg towards his back, as he completes pulling the prop down, so his bodies momentum pulls him away from the prop.... otherwise you tend to move your head forward and into the plane of the prop, a much bigger OUCH! jb
