rosasparks: inothernews: (An) explosives-sniffing pooch - a member of Austria’s version of the SAS - took part in Operation Cold Response in Norway along with British special forces and Royal Marines assault teams. Securely strapped to his handler and with a muzzle to stop him damaging his mouth on landing he plunged 10,000ft from a transporter plane. “It’s something he does a lot and he’s very comfortable with. He has a much cooler head then most recruits,” said one operation trooper. Far from panicking at the experience of hurling themselves out of a plane at 10,000ft, the Austrians’ Belgian Shepherd dogs appear to be perfectly calm both before and during the jump. Dogs kick ass. (via the Telegraph) This just make me slightly freak out. Wow.
