Wow, that's nasty and my thoughts are with that guy's family although I
can't begin to imagine how the crew of that jet must feel right now.

I'd be mad that someone that knew better killed himself, damaged the engine,
and wasted all the work that went into getting that engine ready for test.
Having worked the ramp around many 737s, it's no surprise that the engine is
there, that all that noise means something, and your rain gear starting to
flutter like a flag indicates something important.
