"It followed a mid air drama in which a doctor and crew lost a 35 minute battle to resuscitate the man after he suffered a cardiac arrest in business class where he was travelling with his wife.

Four stewards and a fellow passenger then struggled to carry the deceased American in his seventies into their exclusive area - where tickets cost up to £6,669 return."

Talk about a suck ass flight. We get medical emergencies on a regular basis where they divert to the closest airport.

That is crazy.. imagine having the window seat next to that

 

[cvm4]

I think I'd want to move to out of first class then.

 

[caudio51]

Wow, that is just one intense situation

 

[Wasch_24]

I couldn't even imagine.

 

[caudio51]

Wonder if it would smell at that point. Not decomposing but....

 

[Wasch_24]

Probably not.

You would think they would put him down below in storage.

 

[Wasch_24]

That is what I told the wife. She said there is no way she would let them do that to me.

 

[jrohrer]

well...that's one way to get a free upgrade!

 

[Wasch_24]

:rofl:

Poor taste but damn if I didn't laugh.

 

[caudio51]

Yea, why not down in storage. That's what they do normally anyway.

 

[jrohrer]

:rofl:

Poor taste but damn if I didn't laugh.

I know, I'm an asshole...but I couldn;t resist, it was just sitting out there:dunno:

 

[caudio51]

I think I've heard jokes that were worse.
