Donald also became famous for his miraculous escape from death having fallen from his Sopwith Camel at 6,000 feet (1,800 m) in 1917. On that fateful summer's afternoon he attempted a new manoeuvre in his Sopwith Camel and flew the machine up and over, and as he reached the top of his loop, hanging upside down, his safety belt snapped and he fell out. He was not wearing a parachute as a matter of policy. Incredibly, the Camel had continued its loop downwards, and Donald landed on its top wing. He grabbed it with both hands, hooked one foot into the cockpit and wrestled himself back in, struggled to take control, and executed "an unusually good landing". In an interview given 55 years later he explained, "The first 2,000 feet passed very quickly and terra firma looked damnably 'firma'. As I fell I began to hear my faithful little Camel somewhere nearby. Suddenly I fell back onto her."[6][page needed]

도날드는 기적같은 상황에서 탈출한걸로도 유명하다.
새로운 비행방법을 시험하는중 (공중제비) 완전히 거꾸로된상황에서 안전벨트가 끊어져,
조종석에서 떨어져나왔다. 낙하산을 착용하고있지는 않았다.
근데 비행기는 기적같이 회전을 계속했고 도날드는 날개위에 떨어졌다. 날개를 양손으로 잡고 발 하나를
조종석 안으로 넣어 겨우 다시 조종석에앉아 성공적으로 창륙했다.
