He could of thrown her out first... in that situation your survival instincts probably kick in and you don't have time to think.

Workers on the ground were trying to guide it to the docking station with a rope when the gas pipes severed, sparking a blaze.
Heat from the flames sent the balloon soaring rapidly back into the air with stricken tourists still inside before it exploded and crashed back down to earth as horrified witnesses looked on.
Pilot Mohmin was set ablaze and leapt out, followed quickly by Michael.

Agreed. In situations like that self preservation automatically kicks in.

No, it really doesn't. The instinct to protect the thing most precious to you kicks in automatically. For many people that would be themselves, for other people it would be a child, spouse or other loved one.
No reception there. It's the middle of nowhere (has ancient ruins and junk). It's a bit scary because my friends did this last January (I stayed on the fucking ground like a sane human being).

I was thinking what if he did throw his wife out of the balloon, she falls 20 feet, lands awkwardly and dies. Then the balloon proceeds to land smoothly. Wouldn't that be fucking something? 
There was not much reaction time, it was lose lose.

What the hell is that?! Seriously, you see it all the time, but studying a picture makes you think WTF?! It's not comfortable, convenient. or stable. It's also time consuming to get out of the position. I hereby name that stance "The Apple". All style, and no substance.
