Pilot ejects from plane at Mach 2 [PIC]

A Russian pilot ejected from a Sukhoi fighter jet at Mach 2 speed. The ‘stunt’ was for a movie. The pilot ejected himself from the most modern and advanced SU-35UB prototype plane.
Words from his colleague in the plane:

While on this speed I even managed to pull out my fingers in glove for an inch or two outside – it became heated very fast because of immense friction force plane undergoes with the air.
