      Content on TT is generally just a low effort and low quality filler for the low quality shit someone's trying to sell. They don't really try to inform anyone about anything, their business model is attracting as much braindead people as possible. There's no risk of people being misinformed, because consumers of such content aren't able to consume an information in the first place.

    To be clear, even in space explosive decompression doesn't rip you apart. I think she probably saw something like those really bad diving bell accidents involving multiple atmospheres of pressure difference, those can rip you apart. But there's only 1 atmosphere of difference between sea level and space, and while that will ruin your whole day and kill you, it aint ripping anyone apart.

      Whether exposure to space kills you depends on how long it lasts - anything under 5 minutes is easily survivable (with some help). It will ruin your day though - I mean, the paperwork alone....! ;-)

If these people's cars malfunctioned on the interstate, would they just go "oh well, guess I'm just going to die", or are they gonna do everything in their power to pull over safely or at least mitigate the crash (yknow, hitting some brush instead of a telephone pole)? Pilots are going to do the same thing with a plane, because they don't want to die.

      I totally agree. The really fun part is: 12G is what a hard drive experiences when you place it on your desk sideways and it tips over or what you experience when you fall off your chair - bad for the hard drive, very survivable for humans. Something crashing into the ground at over a hundred mph means hundreds of Gs. If I remember correctly accidents become deadly at about 100G.

      In a soyuz parabolic launch abort, the cosmonauts can experience about 21g's sustained for about 8 minutes.
      It's all about acceleration over time. 12g's could kill you, spread over 10 or 20 minutes, it can cause your blood to pool in your feet, starving your brain of oxygen.
      200g's is survivable if it's only experienced for an instant. Max's 50g crash was probably a 300g crash without the tire barriers, gravel trap, and crush zones in the car. All these things slowed down the impact so it was (something like) 50g's over .7 seconds rather than 300g's over .05 seconds.

    One of the more amazing stories of an aviator flying right up to the moment of impact was that of the space shuttle challenger. We often think they perished in the explosion....when in reality, the evidence shows Astronaut Michael J. Smith was still trying to restore power and likely was attempting to fly the doomed Space Shuttle to the point of impact.

    2:00 in fact, once here in Brazil it happened that the commander announced to the cabin that the aircraft would crash and said: "may we all have a good end". This happened due to a mistake in navigation heading input, which made the plane fly to heading 270 Rather than 027. The aircraft crashed in the middle of the Amazon Forest after lose all the fuel. Despite that, most of the occupants have survived, including the commander and the first officer. This happened with the Varig 254 flight.

    Point of Correction: Even in Space, your body won't rip apart in an explosive decompression situation. Gasses dissolved in your blood are likely to form bubbles (not really boiling), and moisture on exposed surfaces (like your eyes) will freeze. After thirty seconds, you will lose consciousness, but as long as someone gets to you before two minutes, you should survive the situation. I think the one minute mark is when your body starts experiencing damage, so I won't say you'll be fine. But you can live through the first two minutes of an explosive decompression scenario. No eyes exploding, no bloody mist, none of those sci-fi tropes of explosive decompression in space. That's all hooey.
    One thing I've seen on some of the reports I looked at while researching this for a book, there's a general consensus that one should exhale instead of trying to hold on to a lungful of air. The idea is that exhaling helps minimize effects of the gasses bubbling in your blood by limiting how much air is in your body.

    • @grahambaker6664
      @grahambaker6664 2 года назад +15

      Actually the reason for exhaling is to reduce the pressure in the lungs to lower the risks of the alveoli bursting from rapid expansion. This is the same reason that divers exhale during assents. There is a risk of nitrogen bubbles forming in the blood and joints during a rapid decompression event whether flying or diving. This is commonly called "the bends". It is less likely to be persistent in an aviation incident than a diving incident because the pressure differential is lower when flying than when diving. Typically the bends would only be a significant risk for military pilots ejecting from pressurized aircraft who are not wearing pressure suits and who eject near or above the Armstrong Line (the height where the pressure is low enough for water to boil at the prevailing atmospheric temperature)

    Another great video, Kelsey!
    I've run some numbers through an online g-force calculator. Assuming the plane hits the ground at 350 MPH and your body decelerates to 0 MPH in a very generous 0.1 of a second, you will experience around -160 g. 12 g will not break bones nor cause any organ damage, and neither will -12 g. However, under sustained 12 g, most people will not remain conscious.

    • @Peter_Cordes
      @Peter_Cordes Год назад

      Yup, was going to comment the same thing: pancaking into the ground is bad *because* of the sudden deceleration. It's not the fall that kills you, it's the sudden stop at the end (high acceleration).
      Acceleration can be measured in units like m/s^2 or g. (1 g is 9.8m/s^2).
      g-forces in a collision will be in the hundreds or thousands of Gs;
      Modern cars have crumple zones to spread out that speed change over more time, reducing the peak acceleration.
      12g is nothing when it only lasts for a fraction of a second. (Negative G of -3 or more for any sustained time can burst blood vessels in your eyes, or even in the brain. Humans are most able to handle G forces that push along the short axis, like the direction gravity pulls if you're lying on your stomach.)
      So the error in talking about G forces in a crash isn't a matter of dimension (units), just quantitative. Although there are other ways to measure crash damage, but peak G is a reasonable one.

    That is truly one of the most incorrect videos I've ever heard about aviation! Thanks for the corrections. As John Paul Stapp proved on a rocket sled the human body can take amazing amounts of force without breaking bones. He hit the water brake on the sled track at 46.2 G eyeball out and survived with no residual effects thanks to proper restraints. 12G is less than you probably see in many extreme sports wipeouts.
    Decompression is another major misrepresentation too! Major William Rankin ejected from an F-8 Crusader over a thunderstorm at 45,000 feet and although he experienced much pain an discomfort he was not torn apart. One thing to understand about that too is that decompression speed is proportional to the volume of pressurized space compared to the size of the pressure exit (the hole) and the pressure differential. In his case he had a couple cubic yards of air in his cockpit and the 'hole' was the loss of canopy which was about 20% of the volume enclosure so it was nearly instantaneous.
    In an airliner you have hundreds of cubic yards of volume and in most cases a decompression would occur due to the loss of at most a few square yard (loss of cargo door for example). The book/movie 'Mayday' involved a Concord like aircraft that decompresses due to a missile flying in one side and out the other causing two holes about a yard across each. I did the math based on a formula from a USAF training manual and found that the authors (Nelson deMille and Thomas Block) must have used the same formula. The descent to 10,000 feet for pressure equalization was about ten minutes as I recall. The plane was over 40,000 ft I believe. The air pressure inside the plane and outside would have taken about ten minutes to reach that equilibrium. This means though that due to the pressure inside you can get localized wind speeds that are very high near the hole, but that is another story!

    Kelsey, I have been binge watching your channel lately and I wanted to say, thank you for making the content you do. You have helped renew my dream to become a pilot after being blocked by the airforce, and allowing all the negativity from my family to eat me alive and bring me down. Despite all the haters and Naysayers you have you keep going. Now I have grown a bit and won't allow anyone to stop me. I have loved aviation since I was 12 and am now at 25 working on the requirements for my PPL including recently starting ground school. Your content is amazing and I feel like the quality of content is great considering what you do for a living is fly. Keep up the good work.
    P.S. Don't worry I started balding in 2011 at age 16 my sophomore year in highschool, nothing wrong with going bald. All these people hating on us bald men, are nothing but little boys who cant pull of the bald look 😂

    I used to be a really nervous flyer, like struggled to get on a plane without taking something to calm me down level of nervous flyer. Then I started watching, of all things, Air Crash Investigation. There were so many things I learnt from that show, and other things I really just needed reiterated to me, that it basically ended up curing me of flight nerves completely. So I totally agree that good knowledge is helpful (as is calling out bad information).

    Great video Kelsey - hope you’re enjoying 2022! Of most of the CVR transcripts I’ve read that resulted in a hull right-off, the pilots fight to the bitter end with consummate professionalism, not screaming like the passengers may be behind them. They fight despite the futility and impending crash and they do it so calmly sometimes it’s truly humbling to read what they’re saying, if anything. They fly to avoid collateral damage on the ground, and often their lives are amongst those lost in the valiant attempts to save everyone including themselves. There are many cases where passengers have survived but the aircrew don’t - the only ones where I’ve listened to pilots screaming is when has messed up and he’s apologising to his co-pilot for essentially sealing their fate - other than that there’s the occasional ‘goodbye mum’ or ‘I love my wife and kids’ - these are public access transcripts, maybe people should read some - you’ll feel a lot better about just how professional, calm and focussed pilots can be right up until impact. You’d love to have Kelsey flying you, I’m certain he’d be terrified, but he’d do everything within the powers of all the crew up there to get that beast safely down - after all, he’s got a free breakfast to look forward to after his well-earned sleep from a hard day’s flying, he’s not gonna want to spoil his looks on some jagged rocks and aluminium, that’s painful, not to mention a major inconvenience to the rest of the day, year, or eternity - it’s the last thing on his mind right after Fly, Navigate, and Communicate. You must be well on your way to 4 stripes in terms of hours flown by now - will you continue the channel, or stay at 3 stripes where you’ll have more time? You’d make a good Capt. in my humble opinion as a British motorist 👍

    When I think of a body ripping apart from explosive decompression I think of the saturation divers when they didn't seal the hatch before opening the next area but that's mostly because the nitrogen in the body that was absorbed from breathing compressed air for so long under pressure. You aren't breathing compressed air on the ground (or at least I don't think you would be) so you wouldn't explode at a sudden pressure change. But that's also why they tell divers not to fly right after diving for at least 24 hours or more.

      If your referring to the Byford dolphin incident, in that incident none of three drivers were "ripped apart" from the explosive decompression. Three of the divers died after their blood boiled instantly and their hearts stopped, but their bodies were perfectly intact. The fourth diver though was gruesomely dismembered and mutilated after his body was forcibly pushed through a 24 inch opening by the escaping air. Bodies dont explode from explosive decompression.

The pilots panicked and started praying instead of trying to glide the plane to an airport, which apparently was completely doable.

That was followed by slamming on the brakes and vacating the runway nearly banking over.

    "The pressure difference boiling (?) At your body could actually rip you apart"
    And we need only to look at Aloha Airlines flight 243, and countless other examples to realize that that's not what happens. The real danger with an explosive decompression like that is not only that you're at risk of developing hypoxia because the air is too thin to breathe at high altitudes, but the secondary danger is that the airplane becomes VERY structurally unstable, and there's a serious potential for flight controls and other equipment to fail, and the risk that passengers and crew could be sucked out of the airplane. It doesn't just cause people to spontaneously combust. Even in incidents like Aloha Airlines flight 243 (as well as a few others which I am struggling to think of), the pilots were able to land the plane with minimal casualties. It's also worth noting that these types of accidents are pretty rare specifically because of inspection, maintenance and safety procedures, especially nowadays.

      United Airlines, a 747 suffered one. The cargo door blow outs were infamous for this, before they finally fixed the problem. The design flaw was that they made the door open out to save space, not in, if I remember correctly. I do believe one airline crashed from this with all casualties on board- Turkish Airlines? But the United and AA planes managed to land safely. A handful of people got pulled out on the UA, and all surved on the AA planes that suffered from this flaw.
