2. Fuck that cereal

3. Also, per some other video of yours I listened to yesterday. Helicopters are WAY harder to fly than planes..way. my Dad told me once that if the plane was bigger than a bus flying would be safer than taking a walk, but if it were the size of a car all bets were off. Then he paused and said, "if you have to take a chopper, thank the pilot for his service in Vietnam. If he looks confused, don't get on board."

4. I love stories about pilots in unflyable planes landing in impossible places. My dad was FAA (US Air Traffic control) and he had some stories to tell. Pulled people out of burning private planes twice when the pilots over shot the runway. You should do one on those guys stories.

5. That ding before the announcement made my dog woof his head off

7. Indonesian ATC is STILL crap by the way.

8. You should do the story of Lt Col Rankin, he was a marine fighter pilot. I won’t spoil the story, enjoy

9. Volcano is pronounced. Iaa Affa Urkle

10. Please Simon can you also do distances and heights and stuff in imperial measurements

11. I continue to be annoyed that "GM free" is still a thing. Ugh.

12. Open with a spoon in a mushy mouth and I skip the vid.

13. Someone call the FBI. Blaze Boy has TIFO Simon imprisoned and has taken over as the main personality.

15. Volcano:
    Plane BAD,
    ME ANGRY

16. I remember when 60 Minutes covered this, not long this happened.

17. Mr. Volcano no likey Mr. Plane.. best title card😂

18. @6:33 lol is it me or are the engines in the picture backwards on the plane

19. I love British understatement!
    “I do hope your not in to much distress!”

20. Are we just ignoring the fact that Simon repeatedly said 'discharge' AND 'slag' then….🤔🤣

21. I used to love your shows but oh my god the amount of ads/ sponsorship segues. It's too much

22. https://youtu.be/UTHKgVPZ-is

    Here's the first and only true review I've ever seen of that God awful cereal

23. Worth clarifying that while 747 has a pretty good glide ratio at cruise altitude, it gets drastically worse at sea level. In landing configuration, it gets closer to 4-5, which, combined with high landing speed, leads to an alarming descent rate (over 3,000 feet per minute) if not compensated by at least one engine. While a survivable water landing of a 747 with all four engines down is theoretically possible, it's exceptionally high risk even by standards of emergency landings. That aircraft is really designed to rely on redundancy of having four engines, and simply isn't built for handling failure of all four even remotely safely.

24. 6:49 – Fantastic photo the engines are on backwards!

25. Mentor pilot did a fantastic video about this flight that includes more explanation about what happened to the BA flight.

26. How can you have frosted cereal without sugar?

27. Mentour Pilot covered this in detail, fascinating.

28. That was a great video.

29. Does anybody actually love cereal? I thought that was just the stuff you eat in the morning when you're too tired for a real breakfast.

30. This comes on my timeline 4 days later. So much for subscribing.

31. Starts with the story. Hmm, didn't I watch this one already? Lol… few weeks ago had youtube on autoplay and this event was on "Wonder" titled "British Airways Flight 9 Engines Fail In Volcanic Lightning Storm | Mayday | Wonder"

32. Didn’t mayday do an episode on this?

33. The Icelandic volcano was the first time I heard of this kind of problem. I guess they learned from these earlier near disasters.

34. So the important bit to take is if ye engines cut out and ye think its ask lower altitude to try n clean engines

35. I am sure the new name oh my god volcano is much MUCH appreciated for anyone poor writer having to type much less say that name at all. The books on the jarkarta incident and the gimli glider are great reads, got both myself and they are very well written.

36. In Edge of the Empire, this happened to a TIE fighter that was chasing our ship. We only minorly took damage, though.

37. Nice video, Simon!
    But the makers of 'Aircrash Investigation', on National Geographic Channel told this story already a couple of years ago.

38. So the pilot never made it to the bathroom? Damn that's some good flying skills under added pressure!

39. That thumbnail… Best one yet.

40. one dam new thing to think about just before taking off….Thanks Simon..

41. What is more disgusting than hearing Simon chow down on a $10 box of cereal? Not much. Most people hate hearing others masticating, but when it is on something so ridiculously expensive, yeah it’s all out of the park.

42. I was thinking, "This BB sponsor read is very professional…" Then I realised I was watching Today I Found Out, lol.

43. So what you're saying, is that we can't pick them up on scanners. Turns out the Klingons just transmute their ships into ash clouds.

44. Don't worry, Simon, no one outside of Iceland can pronounce that name. I watched a documentary about it once and the narrator pronounced it differently every time he had to say the name. And this was an official, Netflix-published documentary, lol.

45. You'd get a second thumbs up from me for tackling the name of that volcano in Iceland.

46. Those pilots deserve some sort of "international super-human life saving hero" award.
