This bizarre moment was a test given in the Air Force. The original caption read: “Subjecting the prospective American airman to the falling test. The sixth sense–that of equilibrium–is the function of the labyrinth of the internal ear. Underwood and Underwood., 03/19/1918 ”
This week’s photo also seems to be some kind of test, so coming up with a caption for this week’s test should be as easy as falling off a log. Give us your wittiest caption in the comments below!

Actually, the girls were not at all disappointed that Archivist Bob confused “Write on the blog” with”Ride on the log.”
“This guy needs to fall so that I can save him”. Different note: Love these contests! Especially the previous one on air force testing!
