Am I the only one that needed to change his pants after watching that?

I have a bruise on my right knuckle now from where my hand shot forward and hit the desk. Damn reflexes.

I showed the video to a few other people, they all crap their pants when the AWAC pulls up. You can spot the pilots because their arms usually jerk forward.

As has been frequently been pointed out/debated in here, the AWACS did not pull up. Watch the horizon.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.
