    @VonVoltage Canadians dont teach thier kids any better.

    @bobistheman02 Yeah, watching the CG, if that was remotely true to what happened that was the most amazing slide slip in history. Who knew you can fly a medium sized jet like a four seater Cesna.

    @8724624 I agree, I don’t think fire is a problem when you have literally even sucked the fuel vapors out of the tanks. Given the time, the passangers that smoked and had Bic lighters probably had more flamable gas than the plane did.

    Flame wouldn’t really burst into the plane coz they don’t have gas! lol!!

    i wouldnt say “landed”. lol

    @VonVoltage True, yet we all know kids are not typically known for sound, rational decision making even when NOT panicked. Neither are adults for that matter — think of the last unnerving situation you encountered while you were driving ;)

    Thiose kids didn’t think, they just panicked. Understandable.

    the two most retarded kids in the world.

    Even a hedgehog would have enough sense to run to the side.

    No wonder people think Canadians are retarded.

    WE are!

    @VonVoltage
    Words of wisdom. That’s the exact way I feel about that.
    The only time I don’t find it annoying is at some Popeye or Tom & Jerry Cartoon.

    WOW, good job pilots, good thinking

  12. metallica606 says:

    haha my mom was there that day

    @nocturn333 Duh, I’ll just impress my friends and show I can outrun a Boeing 757. I tell you, I wonder about the logic in some of these kids.

  14. bollyking2000 says:

    amazing how one little thing on such a big plane could be such a tremedous problem

  15. airdelta9 says:

    wow those kids are stupid

  16. dareka11 says:

    @PaniacThrilla Loser :) I didn’t say that he’s not allowed to enjoy it, just that it’s really interesting that but for the skill of the pilot he’d have been fish food long ago, and yet for the documentary, showing off a Picasso is an important point for him…… I actually have three Picassos, I just wouldn’t show them off on telly.

  17. Gyroglle says:

    I never understand why people tend to run in the same direction as their chasing object. Why not run to the side or diagonal?

  18. puncheex says:

    @robertkurt2: Yeah, yeah, but that sort of detail costs money. The story here isn’t the cockpit and decor, its the pilots and the situation. Everyone has a budget, and this wasn’t meant to be geek theatre.

  19. MRHappy2310 says:

    @nocturn333 they will get under the wing

  20. MRHappy2310 says:

    @nocturn333 i know

  21. GezaWails says:

    The kids are kids, when a plane is hurtling down at you I doubt any of us would be thinking rationally.

  22. timmhg says:

    First time I watch these pilots real heroes. Amazing!

  23. PaniacThrilla says:

    @dareka11 Shut the fuck up. Life is supposed to be enjoyed, and if he gets enjoyment from a Picasso, so be it. Why don’t you focus on your own life instead of trying to make everyone as miserable as yourself?

  24. rmaxjames says:

    Yet this gut got demoted.

  25. dareka11 says:

    That businessman, all humble and stuff, has to show off a copy of a picasso in the background to show that he’s a ‘real’ businessman. Wow, he really learnt his lesson….
