Ditching sequence in Tom Hanks' "Castaway"
Very scary. Despite my having spent a good portion of my adult life in the back of big aircraft or at the helm of little ones this film really does shake you up!
One minute old Tom is standing in the bathroom of the FedEx 'Bus riding out a night-time electrical storm, the next minute pandemonium all around, decompression, screaming engines, crew shouting "we're gonna have to ditch!" and the craft pointing down at the sea.
For me the gut wrenching bit was when they pop out of the cloud and all you can see is a huge angry wave right in front of the cockpit windshield. Boom! I had to close my eyes.
As my friend said when we left the cinema -"is that real?" - "I dunno," I said, "I hope not!"
