  • This is a Hollywood Movie vs Reality on Cast Away. In this plane crash investigation scene, I explain the entire aviation accident that occurred during the Cast Away. The movie takes place on FedEx cargo plane that has a rapid decompression and crashes in the Pacific Ocean.

      I was reminded of a situation in Arthur Hailey's Airport (the novel, I'm not sure if it's also in the movie). After Guerrero sets off his bomb in the back of the plane, there is (of course) a decompression. The captain, who had been in the back talking to Guerrero and oxygen-mask-hopped back to the deck, is aware that many passengers don't have the masks on, and decides to descend rather quickly to save their lives. I remember he mentions it's risky because the plane is structurally damaged. Unfortunately I don't remember how long it takes the plane to reach the lower altitude. I might need to read the book again.

      Really, how stupid can you be, how insensitive- you moron. He took the time to address other people's interest - this after he works as a pilot and all you bring to the table is that he doesn't blink. What's it like being that stupid.. and that's rhetorical and when you don't know what that means, ask someone, rather anyone, smarter than you.

      Since he spoke of reading through the comments a lot in this video, I just wanted to say that I didn’t notice anything strange about his appearance at all. I almost feel like that was said to deliberately hurt his feelings. He does not look blind, nor does be blink abnormally, and he comes across as efficient, focused, interesting and capable. I’ve liked and subscribed!

      Okay, I watched 2:00 over again. In the beginning, he’s reading prepared text. If I were to post a video, I’d probably try to set up a teleprompter type of thing too. He’s cut out takes of himself reading, and the best ones probably involved not losing his place for an eighth of a second. After that, he blinks less often than I do, but he is blinking. I also notice that he seems tense, almost as if he’s painfully aware of the thousands of people who are eager to hear his musings on a 20-year-old Tom Hanks movie. His adrenaline/enthusiasm might have a lot to do with it. But picking on a physical trait like that, or, say, telling someone they blink too *often* can really impact a person’s self esteem for years.

Having flown the MD-11 for a long time, I always wanted to know what you considered could possibly cause a breach into the fuselage by a “thunderstorm, or hail storm?“ I think it would’ve been important to note that not even a lightning storm or a hail storm could’ve caused a breach into the fuselage, therefore making this even more unrealistic scenario! Of course, there’s never been anything like this that’s happened to an MD11 let alone another large commercial aircraft that I know of. Keep these movie reviews coming and I thought it was very nice to know from a pilots perspective the chances of something like this actually happening.

But thanks to great blokes like Kelsey who go to the trouble of putting these technical videos together I've moved on from a fear of the unknown to a point now where I'm ok as a passenger and am seriously looking at flight school as I start to approach retirement.

    I love the way once some dramatic situation happens in a movie, the camera is swished around rapidly so that you have no idea what is going on. This only became possible when Robert Gotschalk (Panaflex) developed the light weight movie camera. Prior to that, the huge studio cameras were on a sturdy tripod or crane, then you could see what was happening.

    The one "Hollywood" part of this scene that made me laugh was when the plane hit the water. The Hanks character was standing, holding onto netting. That plane had to be going at LEAST, well over 150 mph and likely A LOT faster. So when they hit the water, his arm would have been ripped off right before he sent flying into the cockpit and killed instantly. Imagine standing up in the back of a van that hit a brick wall at only 60 mph. It would send you through the windshield and you be killed.

      My thoughts exactly. Surviving a water landing in a large jet like that is a very rare thing and it ONLY has the POTENTIAL to happen when you "land" on the water like it's a runway and touch the water just right. (not plowing into it violently like in the movie).
      Even then you're probably going to die when one of the wings digs into the water and the plane spins apart at a minimum of 115 to 150 mph (stall speed for large jetliners). Or maybe you end up slamming into a wave in a head-on collision, which at over a hundred miles per hour = pretty much zero chance of anyone surviving, especially someone standing up and not wearing a seat belt.
      But at their angle of descent, they're probably going much faster than stall speed which completely removes any chance of survival. (again, especially for a doofus standing up without a seat belt).

    "Cast Away" is indeed a great movie with a fantastic performance by Tom Hanks. He was not to know that 16 years later he would be starring in a movie featuring yet another plane crash (or rather, "forced water landing") in which he would portray the real-life pilot who went through it and saved 155 lives.
    Your technical commentary on the plane crash scene is interesting but also has some important information for air travellers in general. Knowing that you should keep footwear on during take-off and landing - and why you should - is useful. It's also good to have a clear explanation of why you must fit your own oxygen mask before assisting others with theirs - if you're conscious, you can help them; if you lose consciousness, you cannot, thus everyone may end up unconscious and less likely to survive the situation.

      The engine ran too long after the crash. To begin with it would have ingested an enormous amount of water during the crash landing. That would have stopped it. Secondly pretty much everything that controls the engine is broken from the cockpit back, and most likely there's fuel not getting to the engine. Why is it running. I think they overdid that part
