Default Nearest near-miss?

Head to head with an F18c, by probably 50 to 100 feet in the Austin MOA about 10 years ago. I could easily see his helmet and mask and he was looking up at me. Amazing sight since I enjoy seeing military aviation hardware but with closure rates that high, not much a glider can do to get out of the way.
