00:19don't don't don't play with stuff i'm telling you i think it's a seat belt

00:23the 64 year old guy had been surprised by employees at his firm they'd organized a joy ride in a jet

00:32for him as a treat oh no but apparently they didn't know the guy as well as they thought

00:37i hate these jets i'm scared i'm ready to look at the skies just me and it once the man arrived at

00:45the air base in northeastern france and realized what his co-workers had arranged he began to feel

00:49extremely stressed i don't like it the unnamed man had never expressed any desire to fly in a

00:56fighter jet had no previous aviation experience why did they do this that's a horrible gift

01:02thanks to a watch he was wearing which could measure his heart rate they noticed his heart

01:09was in full tachycardia before the flight i do not like it i think i'm dying but he didn't want to be

01:16a pussy so he went through with the ride god they reached a speed of about 870 miles an hour

01:22when the jet was 2500 feet above ground and the pilot began to climb the passenger panicked that's it

01:29and reached for something to hold on to unfortunately that something was the ejector seat button

01:35and the 64 year old flew out of the fire

01:38so he's going how fast is he going
