:23:00
that passenger D.O. Guerrero,
seat assignment 23A,

:23:06
may have an explosive device
in attaché-type briefcase.

:23:09
Passenger purchased
excessive insurance,

:23:12
mentally disturbed,
and desperate.

:23:15
Approach with extreme caution.
:23:17
Right. Tell him another section
of 3-by-12s laid crosswise.

:23:21
MAN: Will do.
MEL: They need you?

:23:24
No. lt won't be ready to drive
for a half-hour.

:23:26
lngram knows what to do
in the meantime. OK.

:23:29
So we know the kook
is sitting in 23A. That's here.

:23:32
That's right.
What's your opinion?

:23:34
My opinion is they should get
back here as fast as they can.

:23:37
lf he lets go, could the plane
stand the explosion?

:23:42
We got one break--he's not
sitting in an aisle seat,

:23:44
so first, it'll blow out
a hunk of the fuselage here.

:23:47
What kind of structural damage
would that cause?

:23:50
There's nothing but skin
on the sides.

:23:52
All the control cables run here,
:23:53
so if it's not too big a hole,
she might still fly,

:23:57
but the sudden decompression
at 30,000 feet...

:24:00
is something you got to see
to believe.

:24:02
-He'll get sucked out, won't he?
-So will anybody next to him.

:24:06
Until that pressure equalizes,
:24:08
everything within 20 feet of him
that's not nailed down...

:24:11
is going to get sucked out.
:24:13
ls it that powerful?
Are you sure?

:24:15
Huh. Yeah, l'm sure.
:24:19
As a mechanic in the Air Force,
:24:21
l was being transferred
on a MATS plane.

:24:22
At 20,000 feet,
one of the windows shattered.

:24:26
The guy sitting next to it
was about 170 pounds.

:24:28
He went through that space like
hamburger going down a disposal.

:24:32
Right after him, coats, pillows,
blankets, cups, saucers...

:24:37
yeah, l'm sure.
:24:38
Takes about three seconds,
doesn't it?

:24:41
PATRONl: Three, four, five.
Depends on the size of the hole.

:24:43
Everything fogs up just
like that, and then, watch out.

:24:46
That altitude,
you can't breathe,

:24:48
so unless they get on oxygen
in 45 seconds, it's good-bye.
