This seat was one of the recoverd after a crash, It's from eiher is from F-16B 78-0307 that crashed just after takeoff from Rygge AFB. The jet was hit by sevral birds and when the engine did't relight the pilots punched out.
The other jet it might be from is F-16 BM 87-0712, Lost after ingesting a bird which caused an engine fire. Both crew ejected safely and the wreckage came down just off the southern tip of Landegode island, Norway. Backseater was a female administration officer on an incentive flight. Wreckage was moved to Kjeller depot.

This seat is used by the Royal Norwegian Air Force for demonstration of the F-16 ejection seat. It was also demonstrated on saturday the 14th of June '08 during Bodø Airshow, however I saw this video before the show. -And of course - I attended the show.

Maybe it's an old seat. Or the moddeler added a simulated stabilisation rocket underneath the seat.
And accelerometers are small, computerised and battery powered these days.

looks like a model rocket to me...why else would the firing be done in a feild with no calibration or test equipment?

12-14 G, when ejecting at 350 kts at sea level you'll get up to 100 feet. Better sink rate performance than the Martin Baker Mk-10, 14 and 16 (bigger rocket catapult) :)
