Sucks to Be Her

New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark has survived a close call, almost being sucked out of an airplane.

The fuselage door blew open on the small plane carrying Prime Minister Helen Clark during a turbulent flight, she said Wednesday. Two police officers grabbed the door and held it in place until the plane landed.

 

Clark said she thought she might be about to die when the door fell open and air rushed into the cabin.

Watch for the inevitable Mossad conspiracy theories.

    Wouldn’t air be rushing out of the cabin?

    No, I think in New Zealand, the air travels in the opposite direction. :)

    Also, in the southern hemisphere, you would fall up. That’s why I advocate teethering all Aussies and Kiwis to a rope.

    There haven’t been any…not one…the only conspiracy theory going around is that she did it to herself to get Tamahere of the front page…besides if it was Mossad they probably would have been caught going on recent form.
