The British Airways Unscheduled Ejection Disaster of 1990 | Episode 86

Ever have a day at work so bad you wanted to climb, jump, or get sucked out a window?

On today’s episode:  we answer the question, is 2025 in fact as awful a time to fly as it looks; we’ll find out why you’ve never seen 400 mph wind exfoliation spa before; and we’ll compare a commercial airliner to the Titan Submersible that imploded not that long ago.

And because you are listening to this as a Patreon supporter, you get to enjoy an additional 8 minutes where we discuss: how a distrust of doctors can make you want to saw off your own fingers; you’d hear this whole jank sitch broken down for Gen Z; you’d learn why you shouldn’t melon-ball your eyes out of your head if they get too cold; and we would meet the coldest person to ever live, and her dramatic journey from river corpse to successful radiologist.

It’s a pleasure to once again be able to present a story of survival so horrific you’d risk permanent sinus damage just listening to it. Not since our William Rankin Weathersode Disaster of 1959 episode have we followed in the footsteps of someone so unassumingly superhuman that they survived unimaginable levels of injury and torture.

This episode also acted as double duty, answering the question: is it still safe for me to fly in 2025. We’ll talk about the FAA, but we’re not talking about politics. The closest I will come is to say it’s entirely possible that one day America is run by write-in candidate, Walt Disney’s unfrozen head mounted on Abraham Lincoln’s animatronic body from the Hall of Presidents. America can do as it pleases. I am simply here to try to keep people safe, regardless on how you feel about the issue. And on that note, I’ll keep my opinion safely stored within the episode itself, but spoiler: I think you’re going to be okay.
