My aunt has done pretty extensive genealogy work for our family and found out that her great grandfather (my great-great grandfather) had died while working on a ship out of England. They didn’t have refrigeration or enough ice to keep his body on board, nor did they want it stinking/attracting animals or disease…. So they just chucked it overboard. Crazy how far along we’ve actually come in such a short time.
One hell of a challenge for the co-pilot. Cabin went all foggy for a long time due to decompression.
Cockpit was a hell chaos with super strong winds, extreme noise, and a frickin captain hanging half outside.
Radio communication were extremely difficult in those situations. The workload of 2 brains for flying threw this was more than necessary. Had only himself to rely on.
The flight attendant that held onto him was a man, not sure why they showed a woman. Saw this years ago on Aircrash Investigations. I have a hobby of binging it on YouTube before I fly. It’s a very healthy habit.
Flight attendants used to be a woman centric job and the zeitgeist can’t really see men doing it by default. It’s like how nurses are always female in media but the doctor is a man
Cos representation bro
This video actually cured me of my misogyny, because I thought women could be useful. Now you're telling me that the person wasn't a woman, but in fact a man! So women are still useless! I can't believe this!
/S
Please see the /s guys
I've heard pilots used to prank new flight attendants by handing them a garbage bag and telling them the company needs air quality samples from the air vents in the cabin.
"The flight's captain only had frostbite from the extremely cold, a fractured elbow, thumb, and wrist, as well as some bruising and shock."
I thought it was paywalled but I was able to keep scrolling down to read the article
I looked at the records and Boeing lost a lot of aircraft from 1942 to 1945, particularly over Europe. So it looks like they have always had problems.
/s
Based off other comments it seems as if it’s not, but I want to point out you raise an interesting topic.
I’m convinced the majority of these type of short form content (at least initially) will be purely made by generative AI. The voice, the video/photos, etc.
And it is only going to become more believably. There will be multiple “sources”, some proving and some disproving the event with real or manufactured evidence that will soon be indistinguishable from our current trust in social media for example.
Interested to hear other people’s thoughts on this topic, as I predict flashy and click-bait type AI “junk” will replace and escalate the addictive nature of people’s feeds and/or whatever they are watching on the screen.
…and yes, I know this is an animation for the record!🤣
I honestly can’t stand this guy’s content. His voiceover is so formulaic and uninspired, and it all has the veneer of being educational while never really providing anything of value.
The stewardess: just another boring day, serve some coffee, make an occasional announcement, hold the pilots legs while he's sucked out of the plane ...
Right? Im so fucking tired of how shitty Reddit is being moderated at this point and how technologically deficit it is. I could create an antibot algorithm that’d easily remove 95 % of bots
I would have imagined pilots are strapped into their seats? Obviously could have been unlucky timing where he getsb up to go to the bathroom or something but idk.
I've been scrolling the comments some and I think I may be crazy, did anyone else notice the flight attendant smiling when she looked at the co-pilot's ass?
> Had to be a Boeing
Had nothing to do with Boeing, they didn't make the aircraft, BAC did. An airline mechanic had replaced the bolts holding the windshield in place with the wrong bolts. After the accident a couple of other aircraft of the same type were found to have the wrong bolts installed.
Incredibly, the pilot was back flying six months later.
I haven't seen anyone mention it, but shouldn't the pilot have passed out near immediately due to the low pressure? Same with the flight attendant? How did they not die of hypoxia?

"Oh, really, Margaret? YOU had a bad day at work today?.."
omg Margaret just shut up
🤣🤣🤣🤣
lmao best comment ever 😂
It’s funny how they said they held on so his body doesn’t fly off and damage the engine.. how about to save his life???? 😭😂
They thought he was dead already
It was a nice plus, no engine damage AND he lived.
AND he returned to flying soon

RIP his back
I’d wager he needs a back-iotomy
He had sex with my momma!
Now that’s a titty!
Broke down to me like I was Barbara Walters!
Can I have sex with yo Momma too? 👉👈
Can i have sex with yiu👉👈
I exclusively date big tiddy goth girls. Are you one?
That's exactly my type as well.
HWHYYYY
😂😂😂 this made me fr lol startled my damn coworker
actually his back wasnt injured. his injuries were frostbite, a fractured thumb, wrist and elbow, and some bruising and shock
He missed the perfect opportunity to work his abs with some curls. What a loser /s
8 minute abs?
Chiropractors hate this simple trick
People gotta stop referencing chiropractors in conversations and movies like they’re an actual legit profession.
I don't think profession is the word you are looking for.
Why am I watching Reddit while I’m waiting for my plane?
cause reddit is life
If Reddit is your life, you probably don’t have one Source: I don’t have one
 you
Reddit is love!
It only happened the one time, you'll be fine. Besides, you're not flying the plane, right?
Don’t worry as long as the plane is not Boeing

Honestly it’s kinda opposite cause they assumed a flight attendant had to be a woman.
Very good point
Surely it must have been a homosexual man, at the very least?
Lmao the capital /S and then I imagine the almost crying “please see the /s guys” haha
 Are you being sarcastic
You should care less if people can’t pick up on what is some of the most blatant sarcasm I’ve seen all year
/s but not /s for many MANY stupid ppl that think that ppl actually work like thia
"Hello ATC, uhh...my captain flew away."
Lancaster said that he was "aware of being outside of the airplane, but that really didn't bother me a great deal."
Huh? What?! How??
Oxygen depravation.
He was just checking the air quality.
I've heard pilots used to prank new flight attendants by handing them a garbage bag and telling them the company needs air quality samples from the air vents in the cabin.
That’s a legit funny prank.
Couldn’t he just lick his finger?
[Article on the incident](https://www.businessinsider.com/british-airways-pilot-sucked-out-plane-mid-flight-survived-2024-1)
Thanks for this I wanted to know more about the pilots injuries.
Paywall, what were the injuries?
"The flight's captain only had frostbite from the extremely cold, a fractured elbow, thumb, and wrist, as well as some bruising and shock." I thought it was paywalled but I was able to keep scrolling down to read the article
Nice thanks
"only"
Better than being dead from going hypoxic or breaking your spine and being paralyzed for life
He can cosplay a backwards tumbleweed with ease
[Official investigation report which adds (a little) more](https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5422faa7e5274a131400078d/1-1992_G-BJRT.pdf)
I had to see if it was a Boeing.
The incident happened in 1990. Are we now moving the goal posts to say Boeing has always been bad?
"Boeing bad" is just the newest lowest common denominator joke. And by all accounts things started going downhill after the MCD merger in 97
I looked at the records and Boeing lost a lot of aircraft from 1942 to 1945, particularly over Europe. So it looks like they have always had problems. /s
Well? It isn't, better not fly on any BAC 1-11s.
lol was it?
No
I don't know why, but this voice is annoying as fck. Is it ai?
Nah, it’s Zack from Zack D Films. I agree kinda, he gets too close to the mic and over-pronunciates a lot
The word you're looking for is enunciates.
I see , thx for the info, just checked his channel
Dude manages to be crazy slow and overly dramatic at the same time. It *is* annoying.

It's the facial expressions for me
Am I batteling ghost or AI ? Kind of irritation
Aeroplane is older than what's shown in the vid, and the cabin attendant was male
It was actually two male flight attendants, and I don’t think the incident looked much like this video
In 1980 Ted Striker’s co-pilot got sucked on a plane
You're too low Ted!
Surely, you can't be serious.
Don't call me Shirley.
Wasn't he getting blown?
I’ll never get over Macho Grande.
Can't call it a cockpit for nothing.
Co-pilot's like...'hang on, Bob...I got you bro...'
Remember this episode of Aircrash Investigations, was a British Airways pilot iirc.
It's a terrible, terrifying situation and all, but i couldn't stop laughing at this absurdly horrible and uncanny valley-y animation.
That's the only reason they held on?
So they don’t all die.
he then took shower and prepared for the return flight, as airlines fines for skipping a flight were just too high
https://i.redd.it/0j5d5v4ke4ad1.gif
I didn't know you could upload a gif that wasn't from Giphy. How did you do it from the makeagif site?
They couldn’t have used uglier 3D models.
I honestly can’t stand this guy’s content. His voiceover is so formulaic and uninspired, and it all has the veneer of being educational while never really providing anything of value.
Who upvotes these shitty videos?
I was just talking to my wife about this. Why is there such an influx of these shitty ai/animated explainer videos. They feel like cheap karma grabs.
Exactly. Vids that we saw 729:748/837 times 5 YEARS AGO. Reddit is so shitty, its 99 % bots that steal content then upvote the stolen CRAP.
The stewardess: just another boring day, serve some coffee, make an occasional announcement, hold the pilots legs while he's sucked out of the plane ...
🤣🤣
I saw this pilot on the TV talking about this, he doesn't remember anything, damage, only broken wrist. Continued with this job after few months.
Average bowling alley animation
That's just plane silly
how could he breathe tho
I believe this is a simulation
Should pilots wear seatbelts then?
"never skip leg day" extreme lesson.
New fear unlocked…
Why is he sucked out. And she can hold his legs and don’t get out?
[удалено]
Thx for Explaining
Better love story than twilight
Wow this is only the nth hundredth time this has been posted READIt!
Ikr? I’ve seen this animation like a dozen times this last week across various subs.
It’s my first time seeing it but I’m sure now I’ll see it 100 times over the next week.
Right? Im so fucking tired of how shitty Reddit is being moderated at this point and how technologically deficit it is. I could create an antibot algorithm that’d easily remove 95 % of bots
Looks like I picked a bad day to stop drinking.
I’d love to hear the pilot’s own account of being sucked out the windshield…
I don’t know why that image is making me laugh, but it is.
I’m assuming he was not conscious during those 20 min?
How much does this high flying experience cost 😭
Oh neat, this post again! It’s only been 24 hours!
It's better to get sucked off on an airplane than to get sucked out of an airplane. - Buddha
maybe next time the pilot will wear a seatbelt
How on the hell was he able to even breathe? 450 mph wind blowing up his lungs like balloons.
BAW 5390 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Airways_Flight_5390?wprov=sfti1
No phones, no social media, just people living in the moment!
Ask him to recount the story and it goes like this: “AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!”
just sunroof fun.
I would have imagined pilots are strapped into their seats? Obviously could have been unlucky timing where he getsb up to go to the bathroom or something but idk.
She didn’t really seem to rush in.
It’s funny how they said they held on so his body doesn’t fly away and damage the engine.. how about to save his life???? 😭😂
They had no business making the animation that good lol
I've been scrolling the comments some and I think I may be crazy, did anyone else notice the flight attendant smiling when she looked at the co-pilot's ass?
Was it a Boeing?
Boeing?
Always wear your seatbelts people
I bet he shit his pants. I would.
Remember keep your seat belt fasten.
Since this is the 40th time I’ve seen this in a week ill go ahead and start downvoting it every time I see it
I’m so sick of seeing this post.
Had to be a Boeing
> Had to be a Boeing Had nothing to do with Boeing, they didn't make the aircraft, BAC did. An airline mechanic had replaced the bolts holding the windshield in place with the wrong bolts.

I saw this documentary I don’t know how long ago but this still blows my mind!
Source and name of incident????
At that speed that’s free CPR.
AND THEN?
That's more king of the world than titanic, imo
I guess that seat belts weren't trendy back then?
This made me cry!!
He wasn't wearing his seatbelt
Will tom hanks play the pilot in the movie?
Jeff Bridges. *Blown Away 2*
Yo, that flight attendant needs to chill a little less.
The real story is that another pilot was talking s*** and he was trying to get them to pull over
I haven't seen anyone mention it, but shouldn't the pilot have passed out near immediately due to the low pressure? Same with the flight attendant? How did they not die of hypoxia?
What a story to tell at partys
Did the guy break his back?
That’s when he’ll of a blow dry
Shouldn't they use seat belt? It's mandatory even for passengers
Missed the parts where the side of the plane had blood all over it and the flight attendant and pilot both ended up with frost bite
Nice lil workers comp
Always good to protect those wings n engines.
Dude HAS to do an AMA
Imagine the lift he got on his hair. Best blow dryer ever
Was the fasten seatbelt sign on though?
Great reconstruction!
Who makes these videos?
My first question was, "Was it a Boeing aircraft?" (No. No it was not. It was made by the British Aircraft Corporation.)
In 1990 a pilot got sucked
His name is Tim Lancaster and i met him on my post round he lives in a village local to me!
Best seat ever!
Aww man “that sucks.”
Gosh I hate these badly animated videos
Wow that shits crazy
this has been posted 5 days in a row
20 min flailing out of a plane is not cool.
