I hate that Viagara commercial where this guy is towing a horse trailer and comes upon a mudhole. He proceeds into the hole at 1 mph and gets stuck.
The commercial narrator says something like "When you get a little older, you know how to get things done"
The guy in the commercial unloads his horses and the horses pull out the truck.
The narrator should have said something like:
"Hey dummie, if your stupid enough to only drive 1 mph into that mud hole and get stuck, there is a little knob on your dash that says "4WD". Hey moron, try flipping that switch to that position and simply drive out of the mudhole before you go to the trouble of unloading all your horses to get you out. Better still, sell your truck and horses and move back to New York City you idiot"
...so i make another announcement emphasizing that EVERYONE needs to return to their seat....i slow the jet as much as possible to give them time to complete their adventure, and because there is little traffic i get permission to do a 360 turn which adds several more minutes to the situation....shortly i hear a roar of laughter from the back and the flight attendant tells me the flight is secure so i continue in to land....when we're at the gate and i'm saying goodbye to the disembarking passengers i ask the flight attendant to give me a little nudge when they walk by, just curious, of course....so she does as the girl walks by and says the guy is about ten passengers back, ????....after they walk by, i follow them out to the boarding area...he walks off down the concourse by himself and she's on the arm of some dude picking her up at the airport....and that's one of the milder stories in my 32 years as a commercial pilot..
