fuel starvation.
No way, not a western airline anyway, not without a mayday call from one of the 3 or 4 crew members.

If that RAT was deployed as a result of whatever occurred, then whatever was the reason it was not a pretty one...would have been interesting to see the EICAS messages @ 100'!

RAT deployment:
• both engines are failed and center system pressure is low, or
• both AC transfer busses are unpowered, or
• all three hydraulic system pressures are low.

well done crew for keeping those wings level.
