  • Lost Baggage Counter

    ------------------------------­-----

    Traveler: Hello! I am looking for a dark blue duffle bag.

    *Clerk checks computer*

    Clerk: Oh...well, you see sir, we think it is somewhere in the Pacific Ocean right now, but we will *cough* keep looking!

  • Qantas is the greatest airline of all time.

  • It was a dragon!! =D The only explanation!!

  • No, QANTAS has never lost a JET to an accident. The last QANTAS plane lost in an accident was a Super Constellation at Mauritiius in the 1950s. Fortunately everyone got off before the Connie burned to destruction.

  • now u just back off . thanks.

  • thank god i have an Airbus A 380

  • @mastouris69 there are countless airbus accidents and crashes. google it. im surprised youd say that, considering their history. not unless you were just being sarcastic. even the "now defunct" Concorde crashed, that was the most expensive commercial plane.

  • now i know what were hitted our backyard!

  • The plane is not "losing altitude", it's making an emergency landing. And I don't think there was an "explosive decompression" in the passenger cabin.

  • Learn how to say Melbourne...

    But yeah.

  • Anung Airline 2 mAnila oh haha

  • Now crashes yet....but its coming.....with most of there maintenance now going to asia.

  • Someone's gunna be in some serious shit.

  • "qantas" has also the best food and best service. can people just fuck off? and please stop commenting on my posts unless youve actually been on the fucking plane.

  • @abcd12345 Ive flown Quantas, and got to agree, pretty good service and food, considering I am in a pressurised tin 6 miles high flying at 600mph, cant believe people moan about food. What people also have to remember about flying is that owing to the dry atmosphere, human taste is reduced, and other senses are stronger like sound. One gripe when I flew in 2006, I had a plastic knife, yet a metal fork! Surely if I was a mad terrorist a metal fork, can be equally damaging as a metal knife?

  • @stubarlow11111 that is an TSA issue not a Qantas nor boeing issue. (prohibited: Knives - except for plastic or round bladed butter knives)

  • @abcd12345 *a TSA issue, rather...

  • @stubarlow11111 i think knives are more fatal but i could have been hanging out w/ the wrong kind of forks.

  • @stubarlow11111 u know come to think of it thats probably only if youre traveling around the u.s. or to the u.s. cause tsa is only for u.s. if i am not mistaken.

  • boeing 747 is not made in china, it is u.s. made, some parts ARE manufactured but not from china.

  • Comment removed

  • my class teacher was on that flight we had to lessons of her talking about it

  • I would need a stiff drink after that landing! And not one of those $7 (2 ounce) vodka and tonics they offer on-board!

  • Made In China

  • I would NEVER buy anything from Amway!! Take these god damned commercials and STICK THEM!! Damn!

  • A hole the size of a small car?

    Maybe a smart car.

    That was crushed.

    By a plane.

  • it was a kangaroo

  • imagine how many of the luggage fell off xD

  • what i call a hole must be differant in the usa

  • Somebody lost there luggage for sure!

  • HOSTESS: do you want a chicken burger or a salade?

    PASSENGER: how can i eat with this fu****n oxigen mask?????

    HOSTESS: oh....you're right.......coke or water????

  • @UCLosbirro hahaha funny

  • @nandyajoearmstrong

    thanks, 'cause if i was in this situation, i shit my pants!

  • @UCLosbirro hahahhaa i liked ur comment, dude ;)

  • airpressure inside of the cabin is (artificial) kept on the airpressure of altitude of 2 kilometers. "so always use your chewing gum". I dont know you get that gum for free when you buy your ticket because i never did. So on 10 kilometers altitude the fuselage has to deal with 8 kilometers overpressure. That is why the cigarform is the best for the cabin. An eggform should be the best. Big airplanes like Boeing Jumbojets and Airbus A 300? with lots of stairs and floors do their best. (-:

  • OMG I would have been crying the whole time. Bawling my eyes out thinking I was gonna die...well maybe just screaming a bit...just too frkn scary!

  • @68buickwildcat so that makes you the other reason people should be afraid to fly. knowing that the last few seconds you have on this earth will be utterly drowned out by the screaming moron next to you.

  • @studnothin did you have to be such a jerk? who shit in your cornflakes today? Or do you have mother issues.

  • Air conditioning at it's finest!

  • "quantas never crashed"

  • @jlrhind94 "Quantas" never crashed as there's no such airline. No "u" in the name; QANTAS is the correct spelling and stands for Queensland And Northern Territory Air Service.

  • @AndyM9372 "qantas never crashed" is a line from the movie, rainman. I was trying to see if anyone got the reference... apparently not

  • @jlrhind94 Quantas has not crashed thats true but Qantas has crashed before

  • Made in Antartica

  • dumb passengers applauding pilots for doing their jobs

  • @gp4nut No, they are applauding because they just stopped them from dying in an explosion.

    Plus, people clap for singers/dancers etc. when they are performing, so what's wrong with clapping for pilots?

    Even so, clapping doesn't make people 'dumb'.

    You're just jealous people don't clap for you because you do nothing but sit behind your computer screen and write comments about people clapping. Seriously, grow up.

  • @Brulszd would you like it if people started following you around clapping after you'd done things right?

  • even with a big hole in the side ... you still can't make QANTAS crash!

  • the best people to service boeing airplanes are boeing themselves.

  • They landed on the greatest place on earth!

  • MADE IN CHINA

  • @CrazySteveilicous dont steal comments

  • SPIRIT of australia

  • Qantas DID lose a plane :D A Lockheed constellation...it was on final on kallang airport and it crashed due to turbulence ...so yeah...

  • @IDONTKNOWWHYTOO

    Your an SQ fan I bet - like all Singaporeans. Count the fatalities on your flag carrier before talking about airline safety records PAL!

  • Fly that shit like a BOSS!

  • thats why i hate the 747

  • @mrbean2131 You may hate it but, the 747 is the finest plane ever built. I was a flight attendant for 38 years. Spent 33 of those years working the "whale". All crew members agree. It is the best ever built with the best performance and safety record of all commercial aircraft.

    One night coming out of Narita we ran into such severe turbulence that bruising occured because of our seat belts. The pilots told us that it is the only plane that could come through that undamaged.

  • @bjbold Yeah, the 747 does deserve respect for being in the air as long as it has, given its passenger capacity and sturdy construction. I used to ride aboard DC-10 medevac planes back in the Air Force, and those huge Boeing airliners can shrug through turbulence that would turn a DC-10 into a lawn dart. You have to respect the engineers who can design and build something that large and flightworthy without having it fall apart under its own weight on touchdown.

  • Thats what happens when you build a plane out of plastic...

  • Fuck that.....im walking!!!!!

  • the spirit of Australia. A huge hole in the side?

  • a passenger in this flight complained and cried: My baggage! oh my baggage! it is lost! that bag was worth dollar 10...and u lost it qantas i will sue u.

  • no it is really MADE IN INDIA!..LOL

  • Ehh, whatever.

    Besides the shocking hole, people are always welcome to my hometown.

  • 0:07 : Duty Free!!!

  • plz , someone didnt attach fairing

  • Yeah The Phillipines!

  • 0:42 AN ALMIGHTY CRACK

  • King Henry VIII's descendant @ 0:45. lol

  • alright.. i want to sue you.. i lost my underwear in that accident.. 

  • Wow... that's embbarasing...

  • 0:36

    haha Gaping hole and next to it

    it says " spirit of Austraila"

  • the philippines saves you bitches!

  • Thats a big bird! lololololololololol

  • 0:06 LMAO at the flight attendant! would that be tea or coffee sir? lolololololol

    

  • IM TIRED OF THIS ADVERSTISING SHIT I HOPE U DIE, YES IM MAD BRO

  • But did any luggage get hurt?

  • Comment removed

  • I saw something like this on Air Emergency on Nat Geographic

  • great to see that the duty free wasnt affected by it

  • MELBORN LOL

  • I think my brother was jumping his truck again... 0_0

    Sorry bout that...

  • so thats were all the lugage goes god

  • I love how the flight attendants are still giving out coffee too people in masks. I would ask if i could get it through the mask with my oxygen. :D

  • btw it melburne not melbourne fucking yank cunt

  • looks like someone isnt getting their "lost baggage" back :-P

  • i was going to be on this flight, but a month before qantas changed our flight

  • Thats why mums choose to go to iceland.

  • Does anyone know what caused this incident?

  • @dcs002 an oxygen tank exploded

  • "There was an almighty crack" hehe.. I love the way you guys talk :-)

  • chuck norris was hungry, no big deal

  • A good crash is one that you walk away from... yeah they got lucky... and had a good pilot:)

  • Was the runway ok?!?

  • There was something on the wing!!!

  • Ye i bet they have lost about 10 since then!!!!

  • MELBOURNE SHUFFLE EVERYBODY!

  • "There woas an aulmouitey crack" LOL

  • did they died?

  • She's an Boing 747, just put some duck tape on her an she can continue the flight.

  • Wow, now did I know why there are luaggage come falling from the sky

  • I just saw a United quad-engine plane over my house. At least it wasn't Qantas, because there was a trail of dust coming from the right wing.

  • MADE IN CHINA

  • @MrSamjackass quantas is the safest plane, its not made in china.

  • @abcd12345 it's Qantas NOT Quantas and it's not a plane it's an airline

  • @MrSamjackass

    made in america

  • @consrignornt A FAT PERSON FELL OUT OF THE JET CREATING THE HOLE :D

  • @MrSamjackass

    Actually, made in Seattle.

  • @MrSamjackass its a boeing dumbass

  • @snarwars get a life and take a joke

  • @MrSamjackass get off your white-ass and eat some vegies

  • @snarwars iam vegan you arsehole 

  • @MrSamjackass then i'll shove a cow up your ass

  • @snarwars just shut up and stop fighting you like planes if you wish i tell story aout my 3rd cousin a famous pilot on national geographic ;) lets stop fighting

  • @MrSamjackass It's made in SEATTLE, U jackass.

  • Aliens

  • Duct tape or super glue

  • He used the term "explosive decompression". Technically speaking, there is no such thing. It's called "rapid decompression." All such loss of pressure incidents are called "rapid decompression." "Explosive" is a hollywood term.

  • @JetMechMA his way sounds cooler. You made it sound all normal and stuff.

    i'd rather something explosively do something than rapidly do something... and I think that most of youtube will agree with me on this one... unlike 99% of my other comments.

  • Poor Qantas. I just think there are people in their organisation who have let the company down and its reputation. If Qantas is having their planes serviced in cheaper countries, then I am not surprised they are having things fall off their planes or these kind of emergencies. Cheap labour in poorer countries with larger unemployed willing to do more for less pay, puts any company at risk, especially airline companies like Qantas. Major airlines should rethink their strategies in line of this.

  • thats a really good safety record.... impressive.. and even with an incident like this they STILL didnt lose one.. just goes to show good piloting and skilled maintenance crews pay off

  • @rcrocker02 haha you do realise Australia is not allowed add any flights to the US because of the terrible record of Qantas Crashers

  • @Aviationnation10

    HA HA LOL, you Goose - where are the facts about Qantas not flying new routes to US??

    You are a fraud - Qantas has had no fatalities! - 91 years running.

  • @paulyav true they have never had any fatalities but they have crashed an aircraft before even if some people say that they haven't

  • what happens with Qantas ? yes (thank God) it never loses its plane, but shortly they have problems, even with brand new A380.

  • amazing how all these airbusses keep crashing

  • @detraks This is a Boeing not an airbus.

  • @detraks Its a Boeing

  • How come all the holes in planes seem to be with Boeing aircraft. Maybe there is more to it than what the investigators think, maybe the suppliers are supplying weaker than expected parts. Aloha B737, Southwest B737's, Qantas B747 just to name a few. hmm...I wonder, but I'm no expert.

  • this was uploaded on my birthday

  • I assume this happened due to cargo exploding. Some form of spray can or similar. But dose anyone know what the accident investigation concluded was the reason?

  • If anything good came out of this, its showing how much damage a plane can take a still land safely.

  • Metal fatigue, what happens when you pressurize and depressurize a metal tube over and over and over!! I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often!

  • MEL-BORN

  • im fillapino

  • In Russia they tape it up, and nail a bit of 2x4 to it. 

  • @kookaburrakookaburra Haha wrong in Russia they pick up the plane and run a marathon with it on their back.

  • @kookaburrakookaburra in soviet russia tape ups you and 2x4 nails you...

  • No way this couldn't be PURE TERRORISM!!! (yawn)

  • Melbourne is pronounced 'Melbn'

  • @TheCrispyChips Wouldn't it have been easier to say Mel-bin..... 

  • @rustydevilll i guess so, they might overpronounce the i in bin though

  • Attention passengers, a were going down light em if you got them

  • mel-born hahah its mel-ben!! lol

  • super terrorists tried to make a big hole in the engine while flying

  • "The hole caused the plane to lose pressure and oxygen..." Was it metal fatigue?

  • @joebarcelona metal fatigue rocks! and im talking about the game!

  • its pronounced 'Mel-burn' not 'mel-born'

  • illl never fly qantas

  • @irishrover99 why??

  • @McDoniel because they seem to be having a lot of reliability issues at the moment and close calls like this. i have seen at least 4 stories over the last 2 years with planes needing to land or engine problems. i am sure they are a good airline regarding service but its plain to see that they some reliability issues at the moment. shame as i have always taught they would be a good airline to fly with

  • @irishrover99 i'm not trying to bad talk the airline.but you must admit there is something wrong,

  • be quiet son and look out your window....WHICH IS NOW A GAPING HOLE!!!!

  • At 0:33 It shows a gaping hole in the plane and beside it: "Spirit Of Australia"

  • Never trust Qantas!

  • @BF3Enthusiast

    Yes! Lets fly the wonderfully trustworthy Alitalia - ITALY'S National Airline - 9 Crashes with fatalities and counting! YOUR airline like YOUR Economy is bust!

  • A hold the size of a small car??? Now that's a small car

  • @TalkToTheBody Have you seen a jumbo up close? That is a hole 2 metres wide and 3-4 high, easily larger than most small cars.

    BTW, why can't americans say Melbourne right?

  • @AndrossKenobi Use a window as a gauge, the hole is the hole, probably about 5 window lenthgs high and 3 across, now that's a small hole. The rest of it is just wing/body fairing missing , it's not a hole and yes I have seen a jumbo up close, I'm an aircraft engineer :D

  • The "air france" plane that dissapeared in 2009 was actually air new zealand but was loaned to air France for a while

  • YESSSS!! Our country is on the news!!! LOL

  • @topem97. ROFL

  • How difficult is it to get external small cameras, so the crew to inspecting the state of the airplane any time. I think it is easy and cheap!

  • @telosfd there are small cameras on the outsides of mew model planes

  • There is no evidence that there was any corruption in the Bush administration. In fact, Reader's Digest has stated that "there is no evidence of any corruption in the Bush administration."

  • It is not a gaping hole in the fuselage. It's "only" a blewn away wingspoiler. You could compare it with a spoiler at your car: When you place it you go faster and you stay on the ground better. Without it you can still drive your car and stay alive. The problem with aircrafts is that there is only one way to go when something goes wrong : Down and glide. Always there is no airfield in the neighbourhood to survive. That is the reason why airplanes are built “fail safe”.

  • @elton9876 well fact is there is a hole but most of what can be seen is a section of missing wing/body fairing...spoilers are totally different things...now you know.

  • @TalkToTheBody You are quit right. Thanks for amplifying. Fact is indeed that on high altitude (some 5-10 kilometers) air could escape from the cabin by a developed hole which is not clearly seen on this video. Anyway, this must have been an horrible experience for the passengers. They are very releived. I studied aeroplane physics/technics in holland/delft/technical highschool and my "only" experience with real flying is 250 solo flights with a glider, "only" at some 350 meters altitude.

  • @elton9876 never done gliding,but it would be nice to try though. As for the air leak, commercial aircraft actually prefer to pressurisation so any cabin air loss would be better for the airframe. We only have pressurisation for its occupants. Oxygen masks would have dropped, aircraft descends, no problem. Scary yeah I am sure it would be, even for an experience aircraft engineer. Skin is designed with tear away strips so only a small section of skin would be peeled off

  • passengers were shaken, not stirred xD

  • my blue bunny bags just burst

  • "Spirit of Australia"..., nice spirit...
