- HunterTV, on 10/11/2007, -3/+92"You'd better tell the Captain we've got to land as soon as we can. This man has to be gotten to a hospital."
"A hospital? What is it?"
"It's a big building with patients, but that's not important right now." - tantheman67, on 10/11/2007, -16/+99That flight SUCKED! Sorry had to!
- Digitalfilm43, on 10/11/2007, -3/+84"Ladies and gentleman, this is your stewardess speaking. We regret any inconvenience the sudden cabin movement might have caused. This is due to periodic air pockets we encountered. There's no reason to be alarmed and we hope you enjoy the rest of your flight. By the way, is there anyone on board who knows how to fly a plane?"
- heaintheavy, on 10/11/2007, -0/+41I just want to tell you both good luck. We're all counting on you.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+39Theres a man on the wing of this plaaaannnneee.........
- sjbdallas, on 10/11/2007, -1/+38Wouldn't it be BLOWN out? Or is that only in space? I figured it was the same concept though: high pressure blown to low pressure.
- Dested, on 10/11/2007, -1/+35I picked a bad day to stop taking methamphetamines...
- kosmoX, on 10/11/2007, -3/+34You get two diggs, because your icon IS an airplane...
- n4cr2k, on 10/11/2007, -1/+29Nightmare at 20,000 Feet?
- venir, on 10/11/2007, -1/+25For all of you people that aren't reading the article and looking at the picture of the window: THIS IS NOT A PASSENGER PLANE BUT A PATIENT TRANSPORT. You could easily get sucked through a hole the size of the window in the picture. Mythbusters may have disproved it for a commercial airliner but this one is different.
- nbx909, on 10/11/2007, -1/+23shortly after take off and at 20,000 feet already? I want one of those planes!
- sockpuppets, on 10/11/2007, -2/+23Learn to be a Digg Ninja: know when enough is enough, stealthily awaiting for a more opportune moment to strike.
- stonebear, on 10/11/2007, -4/+24I thought it was going to be about someone joining the mile high club through fellatio.
- DangerCollie, on 10/11/2007, -0/+19Excuse me, stewardess, I speak jive.
- DarkPrincess74, on 10/11/2007, -0/+17"Get me someone who won't crack under pressure." "How about Mister Rogers?"
- sockpuppets, on 10/11/2007, -3/+20No you didn't.
- santaliqueur, on 10/11/2007, -2/+18Most (male) nurses I know make over $100k/year. Much more than you make posting to Digg from your Mom's basement.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+16So, you see, both Dunn and I were under Oveur, even though I was under Dunn.
- ajchavar, on 10/11/2007, -0/+14"its a good thing he doesnt know how much i hat his guts"
"he says its a good thing you dont know how much he hates your guts" - Markpdotcom, on 10/11/2007, -0/+14Dought? Doughnuts? Oh, DOUBT! Was your spelling made in the USA?
Muhahahahahahaa! ;) - mrwhitethc, on 10/11/2007, -1/+14Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+13Nothing would happen if you broke the little plastic piece of the window. There's a glass panel behind it that is secured to the body of the plane.
- reconbot, on 10/11/2007, -0/+12You look at that photo in the story? You could fit a grown man though that easily. This was a medical transport plane not a passenger jet.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+12From the article linked above:
3) Blowing out the window of an airplane. Result: Buster's arm was sucked through the opening, and probably would have dismembered a real human being. However, the hole did not expand, and the other passengers probably would have been fine.
Isn't that mostly what happened? The one guy was sucked thru the window, while everyone else (the patient, pilot) was fine. He wasn't even dismembered, although he was cut up pretty good. - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -2/+14I'm not kidding.
And don't call me Shirley. - Aereo, on 10/11/2007, -1/+13Dugg for how ironic it is that the user submitting this has an icon of an airplane.
- coreyb, on 10/11/2007, -1/+12Gremlims on the wing I suspect...
- cam2009, on 10/11/2007, -0/+11Surely you're kidding?
- ScrumFritter, on 10/11/2007, -6/+16Those little windows on planes... those little plastic inner layers, the ones that seem so loose in the frame... they scare the Holy ***** out of me for this very reason, :p, ever since I was small. I'd always love staring out the window, but I never pressed mt face up against it... because it might ***** break and suck me out of it. O_O Good to know I was justified in being a wuss all these years!
- ScottMaximus1, on 10/11/2007, -0/+10You should go tell the AP that.
IM SORRY ASSOCIATED PRESS THE MYTHBUSTERS SAID IT CANT HAPPEN SO PRUFF - Cable, on 10/11/2007, -0/+10http://www.king5.com/topstories/stories/M_IMAGE.11350fb5491.93.88.fa.d0.3322c402.jpg
The window looks slightly larger than a normal jet window - rushiku, on 10/11/2007, -2/+11FTA: " Though Fogg, who has been a flight nurse and EMT since 1983, returned to work the day after the accident, he hasn't flown since."
If you nearly get sucked out of a window at 20,000 ft, get a piece of your arm ripped off, receive 11 stitches AND return to work the next day...you just might be a workaholic. - cankillar, on 10/11/2007, -3/+11Then I guess he got ELEVEN STAPLES IN HIS HEAD FOR NOTHING, BECAUSE THERE WAS NO WAY THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED.
- VinceIP, on 10/11/2007, -11/+19im in ur planez flyin out ur windows
- codyman, on 10/11/2007, -1/+9my legal-action / going to be settled out of court senses have been alerted....
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+8Surely you can't be serious
I am serious, and don't call me Shirley. - iDiggIt42, on 10/11/2007, -0/+8Hey buddy I think you're in the wrong story.
- jmp478, on 10/11/2007, -2/+9Didn't the Mythbusters do this? Buster's arm and the seat were the only things able to fit through the window.
- cyborg, on 10/11/2007, -6/+13Actually, he wasn't sucked out at all, he was blown out because the cabin is pressurized, the pressure from the cabin began to blow him out of the window instead of sucking him out.
- perral1, on 10/11/2007, -1/+8He's going to sue his own family's company? That doesn't seem too smart...
- mrASSMAN, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7And his name is "deskflyer"
- supermanred, on 10/11/2007, -1/+8Big deal, so he wanted to ride with his head and arm out the window. My dog does that all the time in the convertible.
Seriously, big window man he couldve been toast... Wouldve not been as bad on a commerical jet liner, though having your arm and head blown out a small hole at a high velocity (big pressure difference) can cause you to break your arm, or damage your head. And apparently your head is a really really important part of your body. - andytheidiot, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7I doubt the difference mattered to the guy that was partially out of the plane!
- quomen, on 10/11/2007, -1/+7Let's tango.
- illiki23, on 10/11/2007, -8/+14the mythbusters are a disgrace to the scientific method. they are very sloppy and are a good example of how not to approach science. every time they "absolutely" bust something without looking at or controlling all the factors or after only one or two tries makes me cringe. its really funny when they approach a situation which has been known to rarely ever happen, or has only happened once or twice by freak accident, and then bust it when they themselves cannot get it to happen in their workshop.
- spargett, on 10/11/2007, -2/+8Oh my god, that is so *****.
Good thing he was bleeding enough to draw attention away from the giant brown stain in his pants. -
