Don't you guys get that show "Top Gear" in the US? It is probably the most entertaining car show on TV. Not sure how accurate their "reviews" are, but they are certainly ammusing.

I hadn't seen much of it until a couple of months ago. It seems to be getting more play lately though. It is very intertaining
We get it here on one of the cable channels, either Discovery or History, I forget which. Jeremy Clarkson is the most entertaining car guy since Tom McCahill.
Notice also that the 747 pilot was spinning up only 2 of the 4 engines.
I used to work for United Airlines in San Francisco back in the day (before getting laid off :rippedhand: ) there was an identical incident to this that actually occured where an SFO Airport employee was 'blown' into the bay between SFO and Oakland.. As a result, the airline got sued, and the moron employee was able to retire from the settlement he received.Quote:
