I'm about 6'6" and weigh about 250.

What's even more fun is jogging past an aircraft engine test cell compound and being lifted up & set down ten feet off the running trail.

Happened to me in '98, good thing it was an Allison Turboshaft out of an E2-C, a GE-110 out of an A+ would have sent me to Santee...

There are links to some more that run 5 & 6 minutes at the end of it.
I sense that there is a story behind your knowledge.
