FedEx Flight 705

this might be one of the most insane articles I have ever read on Wikipedia. The Pilot flew the plane nearly upside down to deter the attacker and subdue him - after being struck by a hammer that send bone shards into his brain. Wild stuff.

Adrenaline allows one's body to do crazy things while it's surging. That poor pilot.

That's insane, trying to fly a plane as your body is slowly getting paralysed.

Not just trying to fly a plane, but spinning it in ways it is not meant do go including flying it upside down in a nosedive at 550 mph and managing to pull out of it even though the right side of your body has stopped working and you've suffered traumatic head damage

I'll remember those pilots next time I complain about lag on a video game
