Funny you should say that because
MythBusters recreated it and it worked for them, with 'Buster' the crash-test dummy as a 'pilot' (payload?

)
From memory(they did it years ago) it was Myth "Confirmed" or "Plausible" but not "Busted" as they also confirmed the story as true.
I will see if I can find which Season/Episode of
MythBusters it was.
EDIT:
It was one of the
pilot episodes, seems it was Adam Savage and not 'Buster' that went for a tethered flight

Hey, it was 10 years ago so my memory wasn't too great
