[00:00:00]What would happen if a fighter jet canopy suddenly shattered mid-flight?

[00:00:03]Most people think the pilot would instantly get sucked out of the aircraft. But modern fighter jets are designed to survive extreme situations like this.

[00:00:12]At high altitude, the cockpit would violently depressurize in less than a second. Powerful winds over 500 mph would slam directly into the pilot. The freezing air and lack of oxygen could make the pilot black out within seconds.

[00:00:27]That's why fighter pilots wear oxygen masks and pressurized flight gear at all times.

[00:00:32]Because at supersonic speed, even a cracked canopy can become [music] life-threatening.
