He is too embarrassed to provide an accurate history but provides the examing doctor a clue: "There might be something stuck in my rear end." Examination reveals a non-tender abdomen, but a rectal exam shows blood coming from his anus. A speculum exam reveals bloody stool and a Alaska Airlines 747. Apparently, through the cardboard tubing from a paper towel roll, the Jetliner had been forced into his rectum. Once the Jetlinerwas in, the tube was pulled out. The idea is that as the Jetliner suffocates, it burns and vibrates the lining of the rectum, providing an intense sensation to the patient. The Jetliner should then have been defecated, but the swelling and bleeding had caused the retention of the Fuselage . The patient required pain medication and antibiotics after the Jetliner was removed, but was then allowed to go home. 26-year-old male arrives at the ER complaining of rectal bleeding.

In 1983, I was in midair fire aboard prop plane, small airline firm, and for 20 minutes we felt we were all going to die either in midair fire explosion or later crash landing. we survived. landed safely on one engine due to skill of pilot who put fire out after 20 mintues, but those 20 minutes seared my memory and i still cannot fly. have severe fear of flying phobia due to that accident. hope you and others aboard the Alaska jet will fare better. get counselling NOW! these fears and memories can last a lifetime. Mine did and do. i cannot fly anymore. Jeremy,

If this problem exists, the public - and therefore, the airline companies - should be aware of it so they won’t happen again. What Jeremy has done is shown this to the world."> WHat exactly did Jeremy <i>expose</i>? Images of Flight attendants doing their jobs? Images of passengers not panicing in a crisis? Images of an aircraft successfully returning to terra firma? Or was it the now nationally famous self-pic modelling the o2 mask? The local news agencies have an almost creepy way of hearing reports of emergency landings, and they often tend to investigate them to please their dinner-time viewers. Alaska Air reported the incident (obviously) and advised the media that the NTSB (that would be the federal agency that investigates such things) was investigating the incident. They (meaning the NTSB and Alaska) then released the preliminary findings of the investigation, and I read today that Alaska has publicized its internal responses to the problem. I missed the part where Alaska Air lied. I missed the part where the airline tried to cover up the incident. I missed the part where the company tried to kill Jeremy and the other passengers. Can someone show me the parts I missed, because I don't see them anywhere. This story has blown into blogospheric sensationalism. Why is Jeremy more of a story than the aircraft? Sensationalism. But at least you didn't get paid. That's how we know we're still in the right... right? Wasn't there a guy somewhere who hit a plane with a cart or something? To hell with him; the story is with the hero blogger vs. the evil megacorp.</blockquote>
