    Ha!

    Notice that the sound was recorded in a recording studio and later added to the footage. (The pipes are close to the mic and there's no wind noise. Plus, they added a cat!)

    There are (or were) a number of videos on YouTube showing people bungy jumping while playing the pipes...well, there's not much playing going on! They usually loose control of the instrument immediately. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KaLCw06chTs

    BTW it's a way to get your palate pierced with a foot-long spike! Which could be life-threatening. McCallum makes a flexible rubber blowpipe for the Middle Eastern mounted Pipe Bands for that very reason.
