The horror of flying.
 

So the car manufacturer I work for picked the top 5% technicians to go to Korea for a contest.

Myself and another guy I work with are in the top 5%.

Now my problem. I fear nothing but flying and going into the ocean, SHARKS, so now I am going to be in a plane flying over the Pacific. How much worse could it possibly get.

So should I overcome the fear that I will probably be killed in a plane crash or survive the crash into the ocean only to become "chum" to Jaws' cousin?

Worst case scenario I end up on some fukin' island like that show "Lost" and have to spend the rest of my life eating coconuts, sushi, and running from "the others". I guess the island will need a "Locke" kind of guy for hunting and fishing type stuff but with my luck I will be stuck with a bunch of fukin Koreans who speak no english.

I wouldn't worry about it. Statistically, you're more likely to be killed by a donkey than die in a plane crash. I shit you not.

avoid planes at all costs....

Or getting killed by a donkey punch...
Isn't your average pedestrian more likely to be killed?

How the hell can you be killed by a donkey?

I guess, if caught in the right position it could crack your skull(why would someone be in that position is another story) but other than that...

anyway...


I think you should just get over it and go, I've heard a million things similar to what IA said, you'll be fine.

Well thanks for not making me feel like a pussy. LOL:rolleyes:

Don't listen to these guys creep.....your fucked. Hell, if the crash & sharks don't get ya you'll probabaly have an embolism from such a long flight and your heart will explode.














nah.....only kidding









or am i?


BTW.....congrats for being in the 5%.

You'll never catch me on a plane. I'm only scared of heights and things that have to do with heights such as: planes, roller coasters, etc. So if it makes you feel better, I'm scared of planes as-well. I was born on solid ground, and that's where I intend to stay.

sounds like drinks at the ariport bar to me

Thanks.

I have been in small engine aircraft, helicopters and even went skydiving a couple of times. It think its the 600mph+ header into the ground that bothers me.

Or hanging on to a seat cushion in the middle of the Pacific like a frickin bobber.

Better yet I'll be on the plane and some middle eastern guy will get up to go to the bathroom and I'll freak out and choke the guy with my shoelace.:D
