cRio Building Drop Picture

Could someone please direct me to the picture of the person throwing off a cRio from a building. I have seen the video, but it is very hard to obtain a good picture from it. I know there was a picture of it included in the cRio announcement video, so I'm pretty sure that there's one out there.

Also, I was wondering what the name Compact Rio means? What's the story behind the name?

Thank you very much for any help!

Check out the attached pictures - five from the drop and cRIO sky diving, getting run over by a Hummer H2 and acting as a motorcycle ECU.

Compact = refers to the size and ruggedness of the platform

RIO = Reconfigurable Input/Output - referring to the onboard FPGA and variety of I/O modules

Thanks so much, that's even more than enough good material that I could use.

Problem is, though, that the attachment won't open or save. I get a web page that displays an error, plus next to the attachment it says it's 0 bytes.
