In the TU-154, the reverser buckets are deployed prior to touchdown. You can see a good image of it here:

Speaking of odd safety-related photos: This here is a active, functioning airport. The Air Force thought it would be a great idea to dig up the runway shoulders AND install a basketball ring like so

It's OK, it's just an image.
The .cc domain looks sketchy but it's used very commonly for disposable links and even for organization domains where somebody else got the obvious .com version first. I actually had a large company using the .cc TLD back in the 90's.
Similar to how youtube uses the Belgium TLD for video links: xyz.youtu.be
It's the Cocos Islands, which is under Aussie jurisdiction. They have a very small population but somehow got their own TLD back in the early days of the digital gold rush. I assume their economy now relies on renting it out.
