This might happen if you did...


What happens when the captains window blows out

For info, the picture shows from co-pilot Alistair Atcheson, seated in uniform, with life saving steward Nigel Ogden behind the lady on the right of the picture...

Saw that on National Geographic Channel a few months back... unbelievable sotry.
