Thomas!! You mean that you have never seen a small airplane crash during a
television show? g Humonguous ball of flame extending hundreds of feet

max fuel capacity of maybe 50 gallons.


Yes, in fact I've seen (on TV) cars explode three and four times. Especially
when they drive off a cliff.

That's real, isn't it? ;-)

when they crash,
