Some people WANT to believe this even though they need only look at a
jet engine for 2 seconds to know it's fake..


According to the Flight Safety Briefing I attended when I was still
working for the Canadian Armed Forces, this is indeed real; military
jets are not like civilian jets...

Are you mixing up two vids?

One shows a tech's cranial being sucked off his head into the intake.

The other (far more improbable one) shows a man being sucked of the ground
into the intake accompanied followed by a large flash and cloud of smoke.
Like some sort of stage illusion. A few hours later he's shown posing for
the camera with his arm in a sling and a simple bandage around his head.

Perhaps the Flight Safety people were just trying to make you sit up and
take notice of safety.
