The Dangers of Sudden Decompression at Altitude
Joe Patroni:
The sudden decompression at 30,000 feet is something you gotta see to believe.
Tanya Livingston:
He'll get sucked out, won't he?
Joe Patroni:
So will anyone sittin next to him. Until that pressure equalizes, everything within 20 feet of him that's not nailed down or strapped in is gonna get sucked right out of that hole.
Bert Weatherby:
Is it that powerful, are you sure?
Joe Patroni:
Yeah, I'm sure. When I was a mechanic in the Air Force, I was being transferred on a MATS plane. At 20,000 feet, one of the windows shattered. The guy sitting next to it was about 170 pounds. He went through that little space like a hunk of hamburger going down a disposal, and right after him coats, pillows, blankets, cups, saucers. Yeah, I'm sure.
Mel Bakersfeld:
Takes about 3 seconds, doesn't it?
Joe Patroni: [Snaps fingers]
3, 4 or 5, depends on the size of the hole. Everything fogs up just like that. And THEN watch out! At that altitude, you can't breathe. So unless they get on oxygen in 45 seconds, it's good-bye!
