blueloo & Capt K, I wondered about that

The Sky footage shows a tender using the cannon straight in the inlet of No.1 .... given the velocity of the fine sray exiting, was No.1 still turning and burning?

Reason I ask, is whilst this was happening, the stairs were already up on the righthand side and pax were exiting, so the cannon down the intake of No.1 was occuring quite some time after the aircraft stopping.

I wonder if the departing rotating parts of No.2 punched through some vital nerve bits in the forward spar area? ... control systems for No.1?!?!?!
